While studying journalism in London , Bryce met his future wife and eventually emigrated to Australia. They married in 1958 and had three sons, Brett, Adam and Damon. Damon had Haemophilia and died at age 24 from AIDS , contracted through a Blood Transfusion . His Novel s are primarily set in either Australia , his adopted country, or South Africa , the country of his birth. His first book, '' The Power Of One '', was published in 1989 and, despite Courtenay's fears that it would never sell, quickly became one of Australia's best selling Books by any living author. The story has since been made into a film - as well as being re-released in a version fit for children to read. Today, Bryce Courtenay lives on a rural property on the Central Coast , just north of Sydney , Australia. BIBLIOGRAPHY
