The Love Song of Miss Queenie Hennessy
by Rachel Joyce
Queenie Hennessy loves Harold Fry; she has for most of her adult life. This undeniable, never faltering, love consumes Queenie, despite the fact that she and Harold essentially live their lives parallel with each other – and at times not even that close. Queenie faces the end of her life, and she is consumed with a desire to “come clean” about her love and give voice to a secret that she has kept from Harold and everyone for over twenty years. As she struggles to live, watches those around her die, and prepares to die, as well, Queenie begins her letter of confession to Harold in response to Harold’s journey to walk across England for one last visit. Rachel Joyce has written a poignant, surprisingly positive tale of love and surrender that will enchant readers. It is a story of life and death that is told with compassion and humor. Although The Love Song of Miss Queenie Hennessy follows the bestseller The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry, these books are stand-alone tales that can be read in any order and enrich each other.
