Felicia is unmarried, pregnant, and penniless. She steals away from a small Irish town and drifts through the industrial English Midlands, searching for the boyfriend who left her. Instead she meets up with Mr. Hilditch, who is looking for a new friend to join the five other girls in his Memory Lane. But strange, sad, terrifying tricks of chance unravel both his and Felicia's delusions in a story that will magnetize fans of Alfred Hitchcock and Ruth Rendell, even as it resonates with William Trevor's own "impeccable strength and piercing profundity" (The Washington Post Book World).
"A page-turner marked by brilliant psychological suspense."-- The Philadelphia Inquirer
"Perfectly executed and chilling. . . . A sad and oddly moving tale of lost opportunities and misplaced hopes."-- Michiko Kakutani, The New York Times
A New York Times Notable Book
Winner of the Whitbread Fiction Prize and the Sunday Express Prize
Felicia's Journey appeared on the Boston Globe, San Francisco Chronicle, New York Newsday, and Publishers Weekly bestseller lists
Like the few other Trevor's stories I have read this one is also sad. Yet it is beautiful and attractive. After reading Trevor you would feel life is still beautiful and worth living when things are bad just because your life can well be a Trevor story.
