  • INTERVIEW: WESLEY ROODT ON HIS DEBUT NOVEL - ALL THE SAINTS

    INTERVIEW: WESLEY ROODT ON HIS DEBUT NOVEL - ALL THE SAINTS
    Feb 2 2026
    On this week's Styleskoops, we speak to Wesley Roodt, Chevening scholar, filmmaker, and educator, whose debut novel, All the Saints, brings the gale-force gees of an Eastern Cape boys’ school to the page in a voice that is as funny as it is devastating. Through Isaac “Izzy” Kingston’s confessional narration, the book plunges readers into rugby fields, overnight excursions, and the quiet corners where overachievement, fear, and queerness collide in contemporary South Africa.

    INTERVIEW: STEPHEN FRANCIS AND RICO ON THEIR NEW BOOK—MADAM IMPOSSIBLE
    Dec 19 2025
    Welcome back to Styleskoops. Madam & Eve has been part of South Africa’s political and social conversation since 1992, using humour to help readers navigate everything from the end of apartheid to the latest scandals and potholes. With their new annual, Madam Impossible, Stephen Francis and Rico once again turn the past year’s chaos into sharp, accessible satire, making this the perfect moment to talk about how their work continues to reflect and survive South Africa’s rollercoaster politics. Stephen is the cartoon’s writer, while Rico does the illustrations. They join us now to tell us all about their new book.
