# Felicia's Journey - Paperback

[**Report copyright infringement**](https://reportcopyrightinfringement.com/)

by **William Trevor** (Author)

**"Perfectly executed and chilling... a sad and oddly moving tale of lost opportunities and misplaced hopes."**"_\--The New York Times_****

"Trevor was our twentieth century Chekov."_\--Wall Street Journal_

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 the fat, fiftyish, unfailingly reasonable Mr. Hilditch, who is looking for a new friend to join the five other girls in his Memory Lane. But the 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_).
