A number of Kalimugogo's novels focus on the "lifestyle of the greedy hedonist and the ramifications associated with overt love of sex, booze and money".[6][7] Kalimugogo's first book, Dare to Die, was released in 1972, but it was his third novel, Trials and Tribulations in Sandu’s Home, released in 1974, that distinguished him as a witty writer.
