Description
By Rachel Joyce
Harold Fry is newly retired and does very little. Then a letter arrives from Queenie Hennessy, a colleague he has not seen in twenty years, writing to say she is dying in a hospice at the other end of England. Harold writes a short reply, walks to the postbox to send it, and then keeps walking.
He has no boots, no map and no plan, only a conviction that Queenie will stay alive as long as he keeps going. Six hundred miles lie between Kingsbridge and Berwick-upon-Tweed, and behind him a marriage to Maureen that has gone quiet, and a son he cannot bring himself to talk about.
