SUNDAY EXPRESS BOOK OF THE YEAR AWARD * From acclaimed author
William Trevor, Felicia's Journey is a tightly woven psychological
thriller 'A book so brilliant that it compels you to stay up all
night galloping through to the end' Daily Mail You're beautiful,
Johnny told her. So, full of hope, seventeen-year-old Felicia
crosses the Irish Sea to England to find her lover and tell him she
is pregnant. Desperately searching for Johnny in the bleak
post-industrial Midlands, she is instead found by Mr Hilditch, a
strange and lonely man, a collector and befriender of homeless
young girls . . . 'Immensely readable. The plot twist is both
sinister and affecting, and so skilfully done that you remember why
authors had plot twists in the first place' Guardian Readers of The
Story of Lucy Gault and Love and Summer will adore Felicia's
Journey. It will also be cherished by readers of Colm Toibin and
William Boyd. William Trevor was born in Mitchelstown, County Cork.
He has written eighteen novels and novellas, and hundreds of short
stories, for which he has won a number of prizes including the
Hawthornden Prize, the Yorkshire Post Book of the Year Award, the
Whitbread Book of the Year Award and the David Cohen Literature
Prize in recognition of a lifetime's literary achievement. In 2002
he was knighted for his services to literature.
