The stars began to prick the night sky, one after another, so that the growing darkness trembled. Even as he looked he found them.

Harold and the Letter

The letter that would change everything arrived on a Tuesday. It was an ordinary morning in mid-April that smelled of clean washing and grass cuttings. Harold Fry sat at the breakfast table, freshly shaved, in a clean shirt and tie, with a slice of toast that he wasn't eating. He gazed beyond the kitchen window at the clipped lawn, which was spiked in the middle by Maureen's telescopic washing line, and trapped on all three sides by the neighbors' stockade fencing.

  11. I've heard of this book and have been curious. I love the beginning! So descriptive. It makes me wonder what's in the letter. It sounds like Harold is okay in the 56 but I'm definitely intrigued!

  12. I read the book you are featuring and recommend it. A cross country walk, an unusual cast of characters, a midlife crisis involving walking. Touches of humor.

  20. If possible, read The Love Song of Miss Queenie Hennesy alongside. I'm sure it will be worth it. The two books truly are a companion to each other.
