One lucky reader stands a chance to win a copy of Days of our Lockdown Lives – Madam & Eve Annual 2020 by Stephen Francis and Rico Schacherl. This could be your perfect Christmas gift from you to you or if you choose, the perfect gift for someone who needs a bit of laughter.
The book jacket reflects the absurdity of our lives in 2020.
The Madam and Eve characters are all wearing masks, Thandi is holding her home-schooling schedule, Mother Anderson is running out of gin and the bottle stores are closed, Eve has the hand sanitiser bottle at the ready and we still have to bear the brunt of load-shedding.
This is the 28th edition of Madam & Eve – Days of our Lockdown Lives and it will entrance adults and children of all ages.
About the authors
Stephen Francis is the writing half of the Madam & Eve team. Born in the United States in 1949, Francis moved to South Africa in 1988.
In 1992, witnessing the interesting and often funny dynamic between his South African mother-in-law and her domestic housekeeper, he conceptualised the Madam & Eve strip.
Stephen Francis is also an award-winning scriptwriter, and radio and TV personality. Rico Schacherl forms the other half of the creative team – as an illustrator.
Born in Austria in 1966, Rico has lived and worked in Johannesburg for most of his life and has been drawing cartoons ever since he was old enough to hold a pencil.
Besides his work on Madam & Eve, Rico also produces illustrations and editorial cartoons for a wide range of other publications.
