| Synopsis: |
Brain'O Man is a COMEDY about a Mixed-Race young adult who parades as a superhero in his town. His belief in his abilities are so sincere and powerful that he is eventually taken seriously, despite his eccentricities. The main characters are Brain'O Man the Superhero, Chudna, the villain, the local Police Minister, as well the main characters' mothers, to a lesser extent. The setting is in South Africa, with terminology ideal for local readers who can identify with the local jargon OR those who wish to familiarize themselves with such. Hyperbole is used often in order to provide over the top humor. In addition, the author pokes playful fun at all races while careful to be politically sensitive. The book also gives a glimpse into the political and social mind-set of the various races in South Africa, from the author's viewpoint. It is also intended that, in this Google age, it will be easy for readers to search up on words or jargon they are not familiar with. |
