Description
Call Me by Your Name is a sweeping romance set in northern Italy during the summer of 1983. The novel follows Elio, a talented seventeen-year-old pianist and classical scholar, as he spends the languid days at his family’s Italian villa. When Oliver, a charismatic American graduate student, arrives to assist Elio’s father, an unspoken attraction develops between the two young men.
As the summer unfolds, their relationship deepens through stolen glances, meaningful conversations, and carefully orchestrated moments. André Aciman crafts a richly sensory narrative filled with music, art, and the intoxicating beauty of youth. The novel explores themes of love, desire, identity, and the bittersweet nature of fleeting romance. With its lyrical prose and emotional depth, this is a transformative coming-of-age story that captures the intensity of first love.
