Who is Peekay? I am really confused. Is it the author.
Craig Peekay, as Sharon stated, is the main Character in The Power of One. You never really find out his real name because the nickname is given to him quit…morePeekay, as Sharon stated, is the main Character in The Power of One. You never really find out his real name because the nickname is given to him quite early in the book. The nickname is derived from bullies and uses the letters P and K which stands for "Piss Kop" in Afrikaans. The author has mentioned that the story is about his life, however, he also mentions that parts of the story did not happen or have been exaggerated. Definitely a fantastic read.(less)
