“We entered the great windy arch of the railway station and my heart leapt at the sight of the trains.”
The Book Fairies are sharing copies of Four Letters of Love by Niall Williams to celebrate the release of the film this weekend!
Who will be lucky enough to spot a copy at the railway station in Petersfield, Hampshire?
About the book:
“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. Nicholas Coughlan and Isabel Gore were made for each other -- but fate doesn’t always take the easiest or the most obvious route to true love.
For a start, Nicholas and Isabel have never met and nor are they likely to, without some kind of divine intervention. But as God, ghosts, a series of coincidences and seemingly chance events and encounters conspire to bring the couple together, other -- often more human -- forces attempt to keep them apart. ‘What will be, will be,’ of course, but that doesn’t guarantee a happy-ever-after ending, nor answer the question ‘Will they, won`t they?’
Written in a lyrical, lilting tone, Four Letters of Love is a glorious, uplifting story about faith, about seizing the moment, believing in your instincts and acting on impulse -- and about following your heart, no matter where it may lead.
The film, out this weekend, stars Helena Bonham Carter, Pierce Brosnan
