CALL ME BY YOUR NAME: André Aciman

CALL ME BY YOUR NAME

by André Aciman

Unfolding against the lush backdrop of the Italian Riviera in the 1980s, this is a story of a first love so powerful it marks 17 year-old Elio for the rest of his life. Sun-drenched and seductively slow, the novel perfectly captures the unbearable yearning and anticipation of youthful love as the tension between the pair builds through the long summer days and hot nights. An astoundingly beautiful, moving book!
