So Long Europe, Hello South Africa: Tall Tales and Adventures about the author’s life in South Africa during the sixties.

In the twenty stories you will find in this book, Thorbecke relates in an amusing and spirited fashion, about his somewhat chaotic upbringing and his equally haphazard existence in apartheid-torn South Africa during the nineteen sixties. His tales are witty and suspenseful and filled with engaging snippets of information about the country and its people.
