Four Letters Of Love: Picador Classic Audiobook (Free)

‘When I had been twelve years old God spoke to my father for the very first time. God didn’t say much. He told my father to be always a painter and still left it at that . ‘ So starts Niall Williams’ magical tale about love and destiny.

Nicholas Coughlan and Isabel Gore were made for each other — but destiny doesn’t always take easy and simple or decreasing route to real love. To begin with, Nicholas and Isabel haven’t fulfilled and nor are they likely to, without some type of divine treatment. But mainly because God, ghosts, some coincidences and seemingly chance occasions and encounters conspire to bring the couple jointly, other — frequently more human being — forces try to keep them aside. ‘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 within a lyrical, lilting firmness, Four Characters of Love is usually a glorious, uplifting story about trust, about seizing the moment, believing in your intuition and functioning on impulse — and about following your heart, no matter where it may lead.
