He has no hiking boots or map, let alone a compass, waterproof or mobile phone. All he knows is that he must keep walking. To save someone else's life. Harold Fry is the most ordinary of men. He just might be a hero for us all. ____________________ 'A gorgeously hopeful book' OPRAH MAGAZINE 'A funny book, a wise book, a charming book . . . Harold Fry is just wonderful ...

I loved Harold and Maureen and their separate journeys . . . A celebration of being alive, being human. Beautiful!'

  • Read both!

    I read this book after The Lovesong of Queenie Hennessy they are companion books so can be enjoyed either way round. I love the simplicity of the books & how you can really get a glimpse inside each of the characters lives & mindsets - it makes you think about life from different angles & how it may not always follow the path we want

  • Read Harold Fry!

    I was advised to read this book when I was my own sort of 'pilgrimage' last year and it is a wonderful, funny, poignant, thoughtful story. I have nearly finished reading it and have enjoyed every word.
