![]() ![]() Harold didn’t seem to have any common sense at times and other moments, he would seem completely sane. I thought Harold and Maureen were just a bit off. I think this book would appeal to people older than myself, maybe 40+, who have more experience with marriage and children growing up, but I’m not at a point in my life where this book appealed to me. I was happy when I finished it only because I could start something else. It didn’t appeal to me at all and I had trouble relating to any of the characters, which made for a very forced read. I don’t think I’m the target audience for this book. Determined to walk six hundred miles to the hospice, Harold believes that as long as he walks, Queenie will live. ![]() In his yachting shoes and light coat, Harold Fry embarks on an urgent quest. But before Harold mails off a quick reply, a chance encounter convinces him that he absolutely must deliver his message to Queenie in person. Queenie Hennessy is in hospice and is writing to say goodbye. Then one morning a letter arrives, addressed to Harold in a shaky scrawl, from a woman he hasn’t heard from in twenty years. Little differentiates one day from the next. He lives in a small English village with his wife, Maureen, who seems irritated by almost everything he does. The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry by Rachel Joyce ![]()
