‘A breathtaking affirmation of miracles and the power of human love’ – The Times
‘A delicate and graceful love story . . . Extraordinarily rooted in the Irish language and landscape’ – The New York Times
‘When I was twelve years old God spoke to my father for the first time. God didn’t say much. He told my father to be a painter and left it at that . . .’ So begins Niall Williams’ magical tale about love and destiny.
Strangers Nicholas and Isabel are destined for each other – they just don’t know it yet. As they each struggle to recover from the bruises of their childhood, a chance encounter on a remote island in the west of Ireland hurls them together.
Tender, romantic and profound, the international bestseller Four Letters of Love established Niall Williams as one of Ireland’s most treasured writers, and has become a classic love story that testifies the forces of fate and faith.
Now part of the Picador Collection.

A breathtaking affirmation of miracles and the power of human love
The Times
A joy, an acutely evocative and sexual story . . . my God I couldn't put it down
Marianne Faithfull
A lyrical and passionate novel shot through with the belief in divine order versus chaos; the belief in destiny and the demonic fight against it, and, in spite of all the evidence that life is cruel and arbitrary, the presence of the supernatural and the manifestation of miracles
Observer
This book can rightly claim its place among the classics of Irish literature. A wonderfully affecting love story
Belfast Telegraph
A delicate and graceful love story that is also an exaltation of love itself . . . Extraordinarily rooted in the Irish language and landscape . . . Four Letters of Love also gives us Niall Williams's own Ireland, a place devoted to the belief in miracles and the obsessive power of love
The New York Times
