About this book
Roger Chennells is a human rights lawyer and conflict resolver by trade. In ALL RISE, he shares encounters with a host of quirky characters balanced on the scales of justice. His captivating stories include rites of passage in Zululand, student pranks, forays into the law courts, legal work for the Pitjantjatjara in Australia, the San and Rastafarians, paranormal encounters, and service to clients 'in low places'. He has a fine ear for mimicry and the dramatic moment.These Multifaceted tales are sprinkled with irony and paradox, conveyed through a sometimes off-beat sense of humour. And like all good storytellers, he leaves us wanting more.A collection of stories from the life and career of a human rights lawyer, with the focus more on the human condition, and with the law as the backdrop.
