Blind date at a funeral is a collection of coming-of-age stories by bestselling author Trevor Romain, which he recorded in journals, notebooks and on beer-stained bar napkins over the years and is retelling now. Trevor takes us on a tour of his own memories, filled with anecdotes about foolish endeavours, dumb decisions, army adventures and the searing pain of losing the love of your life. Each story is accompanied by one of Trevor's classic drawings and carefully crafted with a pitch-perfect combination of humour and nostalgia. Both entertaining and deeply moving, this is a book about what it really means to be proudly South African.
