This amazing novel about first love, published to a roar of acclaim, is now available in paperback: 'A superb novel about the sensuous light of the Mediterranean summer, the languorous days and nights filled with desire... wonderful.' Colm Toibin
The sultry, sensual novel of obsession and desire that inspired the Oscar-winning major motion picture.
THE BELOVED COMING-OF-AGE CLASSIC, NOW A WORLDWIDE BESTSELLER
During a restless summer on the Italian Riviera, a powerful romance blooms between seventeen-year-old Elio and his father's house guest, Oliver. Unrelenting currents of obsession and fear, fascination and desire threaten to overwhelm the lovers who at first feign indifference to the charge between them.
What grows from the depths of their souls is a romance of scarcely six weeks' duration, and an experience that marks them for a lifetime. For what the two discover on the Riviera and during a sultry evening in Rome is the one thing they both already fear they may never truly find again: total intimacy.
Rediscover one of the great love stories of our time.
