Amazon.com Review

An Amazon Best Book of November 2019: André Aciman’s Find Me is the follow-up to the knock-out, breathless, now movie-made novel Call Me By Your Name—a fever dream of what it’s like to fall in love for the first time. Elio and Oliver’s affair only lasted a brief glorious and torturous summer, so it is with great excitement that readers (new and old) should greet the sequel. Find Me picks up ten years after that heady summer romance in Italy. It opens with Elio’s father, Sami, who meets a woman on a train and is immediately swept up in her smile and words. His interior monologue of lust and love is vibrant, and although it’s no longer marked by youthful exuberance, his obsession is no less intense. Later, we learn of Elio’s new relationship with an older man, and like his father, his age plays a role in his actions, as does his past. And then we visit Oliver in the States. There’s not a day that goes by that these men don’t think about their pasts—pieces of music, cobbled streets in Rome, sipping wine transports them back in time. They dream of what their lives would be like—in every way—with the ones they want. Find Me is a heart-pounding novel of the love stories of men—of desire, infatuation, obsession, lust, and the endurance of a romance that can last a lifetime. —Al Woodworth, Amazon Book Review

Review

Named an Goodreads, TIME and Vogue Best Book of 2019

Named one of the most anticipated Fall books by ABC News Online,
Associated Press, Bustle, Buzzfeed, Canadian Broadcast Corporation, Chicago Tribune, Entertainment Weekly, Goodreads, Huffington Post, Hypable, Lit Hub, Marie Claire, Medium, The Millions, NewNowNext, New York Magazine, Nylon, NY Post, Observer, Oprah.com, Parade, Philadelphia Inquirer, Publishers Weekly, Thrillist, TIME, The Times (UK), Town & Country, Washington Blade, Washington Post, Woman’s Day, Yahoo, Vogue, Vox, Vulture, USA Today

"Dazzling" ―Parul Sehgal of
The New York Times Book Review at the 92nd St Y

"Aciman’s quiet, label-free presentation of bisexual life represents a minor triumph . . . Likewise, his refusal to offer easy resolution, which infuses the whole romantic enterprise with a kind of delicious melancholy. There are moments, particularly in the final chapter, that may have readers gazing tearfully into their fireplaces, real or imaginary, just like Timothée Chalamet at the end of Luca Guadagnino’s superlative film of 'Call Me by Your Name.'" ―Charles Arrowsmith,
The Washington Post

“[
Find Me] is a lyrical meditation on being forced to move to another location after the party’s over, on the Sisyphean task of trying to replicate the magic of young passion . . . it strikes an affectingly melancholy chord.” ―Josh Duboff, The New York Times Book Review

"You don’t have to have read
Call Me by Your Name, Aciman’s 2007 bestselling novel turned Oscar-nominated movie, to immediately fall in love with this sexy, melancholic follow-up. It stands entirely separate, yet connected, a beautiful ode to the passage of time, to the lasting power of true love and the ache of loneliness . . . the revelations about who these characters have become unraveling slowly like a gorgeous piece of classical music." Buzzfeed

Call Me By Your Name was widely praised for its treatment of the nature of love, a theme that Find Me continues with subtlety and grace. Its treatment of the characters’ psychology is astute and insightful, but what will ultimately drive reader interest is the question of whether star-crossed lovers Elio and Oliver will reunite. One can only hope.” ―Booklist(Starred Review)

"Love in all its sublime iterations is at the heart of Aciman’s incandescent sequel to the acclaimed
Call Me by Your Name . . . Aciman gifts readers with a beautiful 21st-century romance that reflects on the remembrance of things past and the courage to embrace the future. ―Library Journal(Starred Review)

“With all of the richly painted details, emotional nuance, and deeply affecting romance as the first installment, this book will draw you in and make you believe in love again.” ―
Good Housekeeping

“Aciman writes about desire with blunt honesty, describing erotic and emotional interactions with equal clarity. Sex can be tender or not, the connection lasting or ephemeral, but it is almost always multilayered and complex.” ―Clea Simon,
Boston Globe

“The sequel is just as maddeningly seductive as the original.”
ELLE

“Elegant . . . Elio is the heart of the novel, as its core themes―including fatherhood, music, the nature of time and fate, the weight and promise of the past―are infused with eroticism, nostalgia and tenderness in fluid prose. The novel again demonstrates Aciman’s capacity to fuse the sensual and the cerebral in stories that touch the heart.” ―
Publishers Weekly

“[
Find Me] is touching without being sentimental . . . An elegant, memorable story of enduring love across the generations.” ―Kirkus Reviews

“Soulful”―
People Magazine

“The focus of
Find Me is the unlived life, the real life that comes to a standstill . . . Aciman's clever arrangement takes advantage of the frustrated desire of the reader to see Elio and Oliver reunited . . . Far more ambitious than Call Me by Your Name . . . great care has gone into the artistic shaping of this narrative.”―Anne Serre, The Times Literary Supplement

"A structural marvel . . . proves itself indispensable to longtime readers and newcomers alike."―Garrett Biggs,
The Chicago Review of Books

"
Find Me is a sensual delight . . . Throughout his nonfiction and fiction, Aciman has maintained a profound preoccupation with memory and the responsibility of history. An aching sense of vulnerability and fearlessness drives this book past any question of whether or not a sequel was warranted." ―Lauren LeBlanc,Observer

Find Me is written in the same spiraling prose . . . full of grace, with some sentences approaching page length―that Call Me by Your Name was. I devoured the novel quickly, and on rereading have found myself unable to break away from Aciman’s hypnotic rhythms.”―Spencer Kornhaber, The Atlantic

“I’m relishing this indulgent sequel―sex, sculptures, food, villas: everything a person could want from a novel or from life.” ―Richie Hoffman,
Poetry Foundation

“Exquisite”―Kate Erbland,
IndieWire

"Aciman had his work cut out for himself in crafting a sequel as contemplative and gorgeous as Call Me by Your Name, which ended in its own coda of Elio's and Oliver's paths crossing years and years hence. Threading that needle perfectly, Aciman continues his story, parsing its very structure in his erudite, knowing style . . . Aciman's genius holds true and makes Find Me a splendid work in its own right." ―Dave Wheeler, Shelf Awareness (Starred Review)

“Stubbornly unsentimental, but nevertheless beautiful . . .
Find Me is, at heart, a meditation on how love bends and warps over time, but never quite disappears.”―Kristin Iversen, Nylon

"This [book] functioned like a medical-grade SAD lamp in the dead of February. It is a lively novel about sentimental Americans in Italy who feel a wider range of emotions in seven minutes than most people do in a month." ―Molly Young, Vulture

“A devastatingly honest reflection on the authenticity of love and life . . .
Find Me is a truly remarkable achievement of love beyond the honeymoon teenage years.”― Tomás Guerrero Jaramillo, Harvard Crimson
