To Quote Myself: A Memoir

2020 | Biography

In 2015 the first edition of To Quote Myself was published and it soon became a bestseller at the same time as it acquired the dubious distinction of being the ‘most frequently stolen’ book. This revised edition contains Khaya’s reflections on the reception of his memoir along with ‘To quote others’, a quirky new chapter that features many readers’ reaction to the book via social media.

Khaya Dlanga has established himself as one of the most influential individuals in South African media, particularly social media, a platform he uses to promote discussion on topics that range from the frivolous to the profound. In To Quote Myself, Khaya recounts entertaining and moving stories about his roots and upbringing in rural Transkei, how he made his mark at school as well as his time spent studying advertising and as a stand-up comedian. He also shares his political views, how he overcame homelessness to become one of the most influential marketers in South Africa and he gives the reader a dose of the truly weird and wonderful that is routinely a part of his life.
