Harold Fry was never meant to be a hero. He’s an unremarkable man who has made mistakes with all the important things: being a husband, a father, and a friend. And now, well into his 60s, he is content to fade quietly into the background of life. Until one day – Harold learns his old friend Queenie is dying. Harold leaves home, walking to his post office to send her a letter. And out of the blue, Harold decides to keep walking, all the way to her hospice, 450 miles away. Step by step, a spark is ignited in Harold’s hibernating soul as he notices, perhaps for the very first time, the wonders of nature, and begins to see people very differently, to understand that pain is what we all have in common and that kindness is less rare than you think.
