Location: J.D.'s Place Book Club The Power of One The Power of One was made into a 1992 motion picture which included Morgan Freeman (an Elm Street Book Club favorite) among its cast members. It might make for interesting viewing (but first, you may want to check out Roger Ebert's review of the film). The Power of One received Kris' highest possible commendation: "It actually made me care about boxing!" Order The Power of One from Powell's Books , an independent bookstore in Portland, Oregon: a city block filled with books. What could be better? The Power of One by Bryce Courtenay 19 September 1998 Cari's first book selection is The Power of One by Bryce Courtenay, a book she read some time ago and of which she has fond memories. As usual, here is what the book cover has to say: "In 1939, as Hitler cast his enormous, cruel shadow across the world, hatred of a similar kind took root in South Africa, where the seeds of apartheid were newly sown. There a boy called Pekay was born. He spoke the wrong languageEnglish, the language spoken by those who had sent the Afrikaners to the world's first concentration camps during the Boer War. He was suckled by a woman of the wrong colorblack, the color of fear and disdain. His childhood was marked by humiliation and abandonment. Yet he vowed to survivehe would become welterweight champion of the world, he would dream heroic dreams. "But his dreams were nothing compared to what awaited him. For he had embarked on an epic journey through a land of tribal superstition and modern prejudice, where he would learn the power of words, the power to transform lives, and the mystical power that would sustain him even when it appeared that villainy would rule the world: The Power of One."

LESELUST durchsuchen Lese probe: This is what happened. Before my life started properly, I was doing the usual mewling and sucking, which in my case occured on a pair of huge, soft black breasts. In the African tradition I continued to suckle for my first tow and a half years after which my Zulu wet nurse became my nanny. She was a person madefor laughter, warmth and softness and she would clasp me to her breasts and stroke my golden curls with a hand so large it seemed to contain my whole head. My hurts were soothed with a song about a brave young warrior hunting a lion and a women´s song about doing the washing down on the big rock beside the river where, at sunset, the baboons would come out of the hills to drink. © Daniela Ecker LESELUST

67. Review: The Pototo Factory (Bryce Courtenay) life of the poor class of the early 19th century. bryce Courtenayhas given me a great deal of pleasure in the world of reading. http://www.threenorns.co.uk/potatoreview.html

(Close this window after you've done reading to return to the bookshop) Hi Silja, Never gave a written critique before on a book I have read, although I've read many I thoroughly enjoyed, but here goes: This latest book, "The Potato Factory", I got from the library based initially on the fact it takes place in England and Australia. It turned out to be one of the most rewarding stories I have read in many years. It has a Dickenesque quality [ed note: Dickens appears in a cameo]. Strangely enough, at 666 (not a nice number, lol) pages, it still seemed to be cut short. It starts in London in the early 19th century and the major character is one "Ikey Solomon", evidently a real-life scoundrel in England at that time. The story has strong overtones of "Oliver Twist" and if you're a fan of Charles Dickens, then I can, without qualification, state that this book will please you immensely [ed note: Dickens wishes he wrote like this!]. The story concerns Ikey's growing up and surviving to become "King of Fences" in a misery-blighted section of London, only to be caught and transported to Hobart in Tasmania for his crimes, a better option than hanging at a time stealing a watch or hanky was enough to earn you a "hemp necktie". At that time, punishment was meted out in large part due to one's social standing: the poor class nearly always received far harsher sentences and treatment then the privileged or merchant classes. Ikey's credo ("Leave a little salt on the bread") stands true even today, and many business people would do well to practise it.

(Close this window after you've done reading to return to the bookshop) [Ikey Solomon as a young man is getting a tattoo from one Jeremiah Smiles] 'Humph,' he snorted. 'Them's birds, doves most likely. Birds don't love and doves ain't blue!" Ikey was never lost for an explanation. 'It be a well-known curiosity that doves o' this particular and brilliant hue takes only one partner in their life,' he lied. 'Should one dove die then the other will remain faithful to its memory, takin' no other partner to itself ever again.' 'Blue doves? Bah! Ain't no such creatures, doves is grey and piebald and brown, speckled and pure white if they be fan-tails, but they ain't blue. There never was, nor ever will be, blue doves!' 'Ah, but you're wrong, my dear!' Ikey announced. 'Quite wrong and emphatically incorrect and absolutely misinformed! In Van Dieman's Land, there is a great wilderness which begins at the edge o' the clearing to a prison garrison place name o' Cascades.' Ikey sighed heavily. 'Gawd forbid we may yet see it in our lives. It is to the edge o' this clearin' that the blue doves come at mornin's light, each paired and seated with their 'eads together. They sit and coo softly in the 'igh branches o' the bluegum trees and should they witness a convict fellow at work on the ground below, it is reliably told that they cry human tears for the misery for the misery they sees and the compassion they feels for the injustice done to all of us who suffer in the name o' the unjust and 'einous laws o' Mother England.'
