Random Harvest Review by Ron "mvg@whidbey.com" (Whidbey Island, WA United States)
A book I reread over and over and still enjoy. Knowing the most important plot device ahead doesn't spoil it, but if you don't know it (and haven't seen the wonderful movie), you'll get a special delight from this great story.
Random Harvest Review by
I am an avid reader (and work as a librarian) yet I almost never keep a novel. "Random Harvest" is one of five books I own and will never give away. It shows the English spirit during the 1930's and 1940's in a brilliant, well done manner. The real reason that I have kept it though is it is one of the best love stories I have ever read! I highly recommend it to anyone who is in need of a little romance
Random Harvest Review by C. Hutton "book maven" (East Coast, USA)
This completes the trilogy of classic James Hilton novels (the other two being "Lost Horizon" and "Goodbye Mr. Chips") which were all made into movies during Hollywood's Golden Era. It is the lesser known of the three novels, although Random Harvest is his most complete work.
The story is a romance, a mystery, a critque on England's class structure, and a parable. Hilton uses the lost years of Charles Rainier as a methaphor for the lost years of the 1920/1930's when England failed to prepare for the next war. Told in flashbacks and bookended by World War I and World War II, the resolution is only revealed in its final sentence that will shock you and change everything that you have just read & thought you understood. You will go back and re-read the book as your perception of all the characters are altered by the surprise ending.
Two cautions: First, see the 1942 Ronald Coleman/ Greer Garson movie AFTER reading the book to see how the ending is handled. Second, the opening few pages are set in an England and of a time that will be unfamiliar to most Americans, but if one continues on, the reader will be deeply rewarded. The ability to be surprised is a rare gift and Hilton delivers.
