A review by lodisparate
Call Me By Your Name - Screenplay by James Ivory, André Aciman

5.0

what a journey it is. i am still reeling from the powerful last chapter and the conversation between Elio and his father.
i am a sobbing mess by the end and i think this is probably the only book that i literally clutched my own hand and heart while reading.
deeply in love with Aciman's beautiful prose that i keep re reading and making notes of and will keep on going back to remember them probably years later or perhaps tonight, before i go to sleep.
reading this was all consuming and crushing at the same time but also so beguiling that you can't help to continue although you know when you reach the finishing line that your heart will break to tiny little pieces and i did.

+ re the film adaptation that will be coming our way soon! YEAY!! i know that Timothee Chalamet will do Elio justice and yes my heart will break again and again.
