Description
Now a major motion picture starring Pierce Brosnan and Helena Bonham Carter.
In love, everything changes, and continues changing all the time. There is no stillness, no stopped clock of the heart in which the moment of happiness holds forever, but only the constant whirring forward motion of desire and need...
Four Letters Of Love tells the story of Nicholas Coughlan and Isabel Gore, who are meant for each other—they just don't know it yet. Though each has found both heartache and joy in the wild Irish landscape, their paths are yet to cross. But as God, ghosts, fate, and the sheer power of true love pull Nicholas and Isabel together, life also threatens to tear them apart.
