Book Reviews of The Story of Harold
Book Review: "Harold" once called me
Summary: 5 Stars
[Written by a friend who is not internet savvy; submitted by me on his behalf]
Years ago, when this book first came on the market, I read it and became immediately enthralled. At the time, I was working in the publishing business. While I gushed my enthusiasm to any and everyone who listened, an acquaintence offered to match me up with the author I so clearly admired. The author's apparent real name was also shared with me, and I began reading those children's stories, which were every bit as haunting as that told of Harold's.
Then one day, I got a phone call. "Bruce? This is Harold. I hear you like to read," and I certainly did. A date to meet was proffered but I was speechless. Not clear on how to deal with suddenly being on stage in this new kind of play within a play, I failed to follow up on that offered date. My loss.
Instead I bought a case of paperback copies of "Story of Harold" and, over subsequent decades, gave all but one alway. It's now quite dog-eared.
I still wonder what I'd do if he ever called again.
