From the author of the 2 million+ copy, worldwide bestseller, The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry, - soon to be a major movie starring Jim Broadbent - an exquisite, funny and heartrending parallel story.When Queenie Hennessy discovers that Harold Fry is walking the length of England to save her, and all she has to do is wait, she is shocked. Her note had explained she was dying. How can she wait?A new volunteer at the hospice suggests that Queenie should write again; only this time she must tell Harold everything. In confessing to secrets she has hidden for twenty years, she will find atonement for the past. As the volunteer points out, 'Even though you've done your travelling, you're starting a new journey too.'Queenie thought her first letter would be the end of the story. She was wrong. It was the beginning.Told in simple, emotionally-honest prose, with a mischievous bite, this is a novel about the journey we all must take to learn who we are; it is about loving and letting go. And most of all it is about finding joy in unexpected places and at times we least expect.-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------'A beautiful story which will grip you, make you laugh and cry, uplift your spirit and leave you feeling profoundly grateful' DAILY MAIL'Will leave you wide-eyed and wanting to read it all again . . . wondrous' THE TIMES........................................................................................................................................................................................................IF YOU LOVE THIS NOVEL YOU WILL ALSO ENJOY THE FINAL PART OF THE HAROLD FRY TRILOGY - MAUREEN FRY AND THE ANGEL OF THE NORTH - OUT NOWRACHEL JOYCE'S MOST RECENT NOVEL - THE HOMEMADE GOD - IS ALSO NOW OUT IN PAPERBACK.
