In the end, love is more important than everything and it will conquer and overcome anything. Or thats how Damon saw it, anyway.
Damon wanted a book that talked a lot about love.
Damon Courtenay died on the morning of April Fools Day. In this tribute to his son, Bryce Courtenay lays bare the suffering behind this young mans life. Damons story is one of life-long struggle, his love for Celeste, the compassion of family, and a fight to the end for integrity. A testimony to the power of love, April Fools Day is also about understanding: how when we confront our worst, we can become our best. April Fools Day is one of those rare, wholly beautiful books that lets life speak for itself.
