ANDRÉ ACIMAN
discussing the much-anticipated sequel to Call Me By Your Name
Wednesday, October 30, 8pm
Books & Books, Coral Gables
No novel in recent memory has spoken more movingly to contemporary readers about the nature of love than André Aciman’s haunting Call Me by Your Name. Nearly three quarters of a million copies have been sold, and the book became a much-loved, Academy Award–winning film starring Timothée Chalametas the young Elio and Armie Hammer as Oliver, the graduate student with whom he falls in love.
Find Me (Farrar, Straus & Giroux, $27) brings us back inside the magic circle of one of our greatest contemporary romances, picking up the plot-lines of the beloved and beguiling protagonists Elio and Oliver, and also with Elio’s father Samuel. Aciman tugs on our heartstrings again, illuminating all the vulnerabilities, uncertainties, and overwhelming joys of romance — as no other writer in the 21st century can — and ask if in fact, true love ever dies.
Your ticket includes (1) one copy of the book and (1) entry to the event, while supplies last. All books will be distributed at the door that evening. Booksigning to follow.
