He's adapted his first book from 1997 - Four Letters of Love, a feel good tale about vocation, fate, love and destiny. Set in the west of Ireland, its stars include Pierce Brosnan, Helena Bonham Carter and Gabriel Byrne.
Born in Dublin, Niall was long-listed for the Booker Prize in 2014 for History of the Rain and his most recent book Time of the Child won Irish Novel of the year. But Four Letters of Love remains his biggest seller.
Niall explains to Susie why he adapted his first novel 27 years after he wrote it.
