Call Me by Your Name first swept across the world in 2007. It is the story of a sudden and powerful romance that blossoms between an adolescent boy and a summer guest at his parents' cliffside mansion on the Italian Riviera. During the restless summer weeks, unrelenting but buried currents of obsession, fascination, and desire intensify their passion as they test the charged ground between them and verge toward the one thing both already fear they may never truly find again: total intimacy. André Aciman's critically acclaimed debut novel is a frank, unsentimental, heartrending elegy to human passion.

More praise for Call Me By Your Name:

"Hammer’s soft, velvety voice lends itself perfectly to the story and its Italian setting. While you might think this one isn’t worth a listen if you’ve already seen the movie or read the book, many reviewers say it is still worth taking in even if you know the story - some even say it’s worth listening to more than once."

Editorial reviews

Editors Select, October 2017

Andre Aciman's critically acclaimed novel may finally be stepping into modern classic status, having recently emerged from relative obscurity due to the upcoming movie release starring Armie Hammer. And its place in the literary canon is well deserved, depicting perfectly the infatuated experience of first love (I won't say "feeling" because the picture Aciman paints is not a singular "thing" - it's very much a journey through obsession). The story is beautiful, erotic, and feels firmly rooted in human truths (and will make you blush). But what makes it truly worthy of listening to - and why it's my pick for October - is THAT voice. Armie Hammer's narration is among the best I've ever experienced. —Emily, Audible Editor

Critic Reviews

"...Hammer's voice is brimming with such melody that, if you listen to it long enough, you can probably get drunk off it." (Vulture.com)

"...Armie Hammer (who plays Oliver in the movie) steps effortlessly into Elio's interior world. The result is staggering." (BookRiot)

Most relevant

I have avoided books in romance for such long time as the mental turmoil stirred by these books can take a lot of efforts to settle. I listened to this nevertheless after seeing Armie Hammer’s interview and the movie trailer. Now I have to face up to the consequences: I am haunted and heartbroken. I keep coming back to the night when Elio found Oliver sitting on a rock, resentments surged when Oliver said he was going to getting married, tears dropped when Oliver revealed what he wrote on the back on the back of the postcards, I choked up after what Oliver responded to Elio’s promise that one day her will come over for dinner. The books ends on a rather clam note, as if so many things have washed away by time, yet so many thoughts paralyse my mind: why didn’t Oliver mention anything about his future wife I that six weeks? Why Elio had not visit Oliver during his college years in the States ? What would happen if he did ? Where is their future heading to, is it going be another short reunion several years later ? And, what about myself ? Will I ever be able to find my own Oliver ? Is the love between them even realistic in the real world? Or would I actually prefer to go on and live a drama free life ? This book opens up some many inconvenient questions that I now can’t help thinking about...........
