Aber einmal in der Welt, geschah durch ihn etwas Seltsames. Es struggle, als habe das Buch den Virus des Verhörens freigesetzt. Axel Hacke erhielt Berge von Leserpost mit den kuriosesten Verhörern. Der schönste betrifft den Buchtitel selbst: In einer Buchhandlung verlangte jemand dringend den Titel »Das weiß der Neger Wumbaba«. Jetzt kehrt der weiße Neger Wumbaba zurück. Mit einem Rollköfferchen voller Wunderwesen des Verhörens: dem Kinder-Lehmann, Jack, der Sau und dem Schlächter Müller. Tiefere Wahrheiten und größeres Vergnügen kann guy mit einem Buch nicht liefern.
