Join Hawkesbury Library Service for a discussion of the long-awaited memoir of the late Bryce Courtenay – Australia's bestselling author – as told by his wife, Christine Courtenay at Hawkesbury Central Library on Monday, 7 November from 12:30pm to 1:30pm.
Bryce Courtenay was a born storyteller. The success of his extraordinary debut The Power of One made publishing history. In the years that followed Bryce continued to entertain and inspire thousands of devoted readers around the world with his sweeping epics and larger-than-life characters that embody the strength and triumph of the human condition.
When Christine began penning her own memoir during lockdown, she found herself increasingly drawn to the remarkable story of her late husband's life and reflecting upon his astonishing literary legacy.
Christine uncovers the events that shaped the man behind the stories – a man complex, driven and unfailingly positive, who never lost sight of his childhood dream to be a writer. Bryce Courtenay: Storyteller is a fascinating, tribute to the life and work of Australia's most and enigmatic writers.
This event will be held at the Hawkesbury Central Library, 300 George Street, Windsor. There will be a small cost of $5 which will include light refreshments.
Bookings are essential via www.hawkesburylibrary.eventbrite.com or call 4560 4460.
