Histoire
The four fires in this story are passion, religion, warfare, and fire itself. While there are many more fires that drive the human spirit, love being perhaps the brightest flame of all, it is these four that have moulded us most as Australian people. The four fires give us our sense of place and, for better or for worse, shape our national character.

Histoire
This is Bryce Courtenay's moving tribute to his son, Damon, a hemophiliac who died from medically acquired AIDS on April 1, 1991, at the age of 24. April Fool's Day is controversial, painful and heartbreaking, yet has a gentle humor. It is also life-affirming, and, above all, a testimony to the incredible regenerative strength of love: how when we confront our worst, we can become our best. This tragic yet uplifting story will change the way you think.

perhaps better than the power of one but different
this book although I must admit may have seemed nearly identical to the power of one/ tandia has proven to have been different in a great way. the narrator Humphrey had as usual nailed the accentuation that I would never have achieved had I read it with my eyes. Awesome!

Too Close to The power Of One
While this was an entertaining read, having read the Power Of One some years ago, I struggled to really like this novel. I think Courtenay took the exact recipe for this previous best seller and tried to recreate the epic tale. It was however, a little too close to his previous novel in almost every detail. Set in Apartheid South Africa, young clever Eglish boy with the odds stacked against him, loves a black south african and therefore cannot tolerate the injustices perpetrated against them by the white mainly Boer south african: who are portrayed as absolutely brutal. Both characters grow up to to become lawyers and right an injustice from childhood. Both characters even find puppies they must rescue and hide and who become their best friend. I wondered many times while reading this novel why would a publisher publish essentially the same novel with small details and names changed? And of course not as much boxing. Humphrey Bower is absolute gold

Power of One V2.0
If you are looking for a book nearly identical to the Power of One its a great book. The similarities between the two books are abundant. If you haven't read the Power of One read it instead. Still an enjoyable listen.
