The Love Letters

In this heartfelt novel from the author of A Wrinkle in Time, Charlotte Napier escapes her painful reality—a loss and a marriage collapse—by traveling to Portugal to seek guidance from her mother-in-law. There, she finds comfort and insight in the letters of seventeenth-century nun Mariana Alcoforado, whose spiritual journey mirrors Charlotte's own struggles with love, sin, and faith. As she immerses herself in Mariana's story, Charlotte gains a deeper understanding of her inner turmoil and begins to embrace the complex nature of love.
