The Kaffir Killer, as its title indicates, is a play about apartheid South Africa. It has been performed on radio by the BBC and on stage to great acclaim in different countries, but has never appeared in book form until now. The racism, bigotry and blinkered thinking that it excoriates are of historical interest, but can be considered also as a paradigm case of dangerous attitudes still existing elsewhere in different forms today.


Peter Royle, who has lived in many countries, resided in South Africa for seven years. He is a specialist on the works of Jean-Paul Sartre, on which he has published three books, two of them (L’Enfer et la liberté and L’Homme et lenéant) in French and the other (The Sartre-Camus Controversy) in English. He has written several other plays which have had highly successful productions, including The Atom Who Yearned to be a Molecule, a set of four one-act plays, also staged under the title Nuptials Canada, and two novels My Mother-in-law’s Murder and Chucker, McKiller and Di.
