Call Me by Your Name by André Aciman is an acclaimed LGBTQ+ literary novel about first love, desire, memory, and the lasting impact of a life-changing summer.
Set on the Italian Riviera during the 1980s, the story follows seventeen-year-old Elio, whose quiet summer is transformed by the arrival of Oliver, a visiting American scholar staying with his family.
