A Brief Look Inside:
Rachel Joyce's novel, The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry, touches on the themes of love, loss, grief, and the journey of life. When Harold gets word that his old friend, Queenie, has cancer and is in hospice, he decides he has to deliver a letter to her. He sets out on a 600-mile journey on foot to get to Queenie before it is too late. Along the way, Harold meets many different people who accompany him on his journey.

His journey becomes not only physical but spiritual as well. The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry was nominated for the Man Booker Prize and the Desmond Elliott Prize in 2012.
