benni 's review for:

Four Letters of Love by Niall Williams
2.0

this book is actually quite bad, but i did enjoy reading it.

absolutely choked with misogyny and the spiritual and intellectual fact common in irish literature that nobody actually talks to one another and that everything they have ever understood in life has been an understanding of god or rather a misunderstanding of him.

apart from that it's all style - a beautiful style, truly - and no substance.
