Bryce Courtenay's "The Power Of One": Alternative Ending
[ send me this paper ]
7 pages in length. Rising up against social dictate is never an easy objective, particularly when one is a child of African apartheid. Peekay, the protagonist in Bryce Courtenay's The Power of One overtly abandons all he knows of racial and political limitations, choosing instead to focus his life upon the elements of positive approach. Clearly, the only means by which Peekay could break free from the inherent constraints of racial tension was to rise above it. Changing the ending from the unexpected tryst between the hero and the neo-Nazi is not that difficult a task, inasmuch as one might readily envision a majority of South Africa's white voters ratifying de Klerk's decision to progress toward black majority rule.
