Rachel Joyce's first novel The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry was long listed for the Man Booker Prize in 2012. The Love Song of Miss Queenie Hennessy is a companion novel rather than a sequel to "Harold". In Rachel's first novel Harold receives a letter from Queenie, an old work colleague, telling him she is dying and wanting to say "goodbye". Harold writes a reply and instead of posting it he decides to walk the length of England to deliver it in person. Rachel's new novel is written in the voice of Queenie writing a follow-up letter to Harold and some startling revelations come to light. If you enjoyed the quirky The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry you will want to know more about the relationship between Harold and Queenie. A gentle and enjoyable read.
