Has anyone read Bryce Courtenay?.
His most famous work is The Power Of One. The movie sucks, of course. But the book is another matter. If you have read the book, you might be surprised to hear that there is a sequal to that book. Strangely, his only US published book is The Power Of One.
He has maybe about 20 more novels published mostly in UK, Canada and Australia where he resides now. He was banned from his home country; South Africa for teaching the Africans to read. Most of the hardcover I bought I had to buy from Australia. I only own 2 signed book by him. This guy is amazing!. One of the best writer alive, IMO, next to King.
