Hill of Fools is a 1976 English-language novel by Xhosa novelist R.L. Peteni.[1] The novel was later republished by Heineman as part of their African Writers Series in 1980, and subsequently translated into the Xhosa language in 1980, published under the title Kwazidenge.[1] The plot focuses on the feud between two villages.[1] The novel was Peteni's only novel.[2]
The novel has been widely adopted in the school curriculum, despite some criticism by more conservative commentators for its sexual and racy elements.[2] An adaptation of the novel was created into a television show by the SABC.[2] Willia Thambo and Amanda Quwe starred in the film.[2]
