Find Me by André Aciman Book Summary

A New York Times Bestseller

In this spellbinding exploration of the varieties of love, the author of the worldwide bestseller Call Me by Your Name revisits its complex and beguiling characters decades after their first meeting.

No novel in recent memory has spoken more movingly to contemporary readers about the nature of love than André Aciman’s haunting Call Me by Your Name. First published in 2007, it was hailed as “a love letter, an invocation . . . an exceptionally beautiful book” (Stacey D’Erasmo, The New York Times Book Review). Nearly three quarters of a million copies have been sold, and the book became a much-loved, Academy Award–winning film starring Timothée Chalamet as the young Elio and Armie Hammer as Oliver, the graduate student with whom he falls in love.

In Find Me, Aciman shows us Elio’s father, Samuel, on a trip from Florence to Rome to visit Elio, who has become a gifted classical pianist. A chance encounter on the train with a beautiful young woman upends Sami’s plans and changes his life forever.

Elio soon moves to Paris, where he, too, has a consequential affair, while Oliver, now a New England college professor with a family, suddenly finds himself contemplating a return trip across the Atlantic.

Aciman is a master of sensibility, of the intimate details and the emotional nuances that are the substance of passion. Find Me brings us back inside the magic circle of one of our greatest contemporary romances to ask if, in fact, true love ever dies.

Insufferable. Aciman really beats the dead horse with this one. To say he “explores concepts” is generous. An odd fantasy with annoying characters I could not enjoy. Skip. The opposite of Call Me By Your Name.

What fuels love better than a denial to it?. Imagine what would happen if Romeo and Juliet survived the poison and the stab into the heart? Well, they might live happily ever after, or they would decide to have a civil divorce when Romeo in his late forties met and fell head and heel with a beautiful young woman at his birthday party... Everyone can be R&J, or the Professor in FIND ME. Alright, FM is actually not a bad novel. It is not even an expensive one. Why in my eyes it’s still hardly comparable with it precedent? The reason is simple. The love tragedy depicted in CMBYN fills the past two decades in their life with so much longing and suffering that it is already perfect and complete in its own. Any attempts to bring the two together, which I did hope when finishing reading CMBYN, is not only an insult to readers’ literary taste, but also a doomed cause due to human’s inability to catch or keep happiness. No one is perfect. Neither is one’s life, or love. I am actually glad Romeo and Juliet died before their love did... But with this sequel the Elio and Oliver I once knew are gone, for good.

My Heart.........Again❤️. No one writes inner dialogue, and about love and raw intimacy like Andre Aciman. A beautiful journey of three gorgeous hearts with a satisfying ending.

I’m so excited for this book. 😄😄😄

More than what it’s cut out to be.. This was a beautiful sequel to the previous book. Not only did Andre give a perfect view into the lives of all the right characters during the aftermath years in the future, but he provided a very sweet, sultry, and soft landing for Elio+Oliver lovers alike. If it was possible, I’d even beg for a third book. This was an amazing read.

RAW LOVE. Honestly after watching Call me by your name, I was very curious of what the second movie would be so I stumble upon this book. I’m so glad that I did! The authors word play is so imaginative and the love between Oliver and Ellio was so innocent, beautiful, and heart breaking all at once. This is the first book I have ever read in my life, and honestly won’t be the last. Great job on this one, can’t wait for the movie actually comes out with the same characters.

Divine Book.. It was difficult for me to understand this book at the beginning. I still think that Mr. Perlman and Miranda’s relationship, as though interesting, could have been told in a lot fewer pages. I also would have like to know more about her life at the end of the book. All of this, maybe because as a fan of the previous book “Call me by your name” I was too anxious to know what happened later, but what happened between Oliver and Elio. The first chapter felt like a long and tall wall to get to the point. The chapter with Elio and Michel too, but less. At the end, everything made sense and I got what I wanted. I guess at the beginning I had forgotten that in this books at least, this author makes you wait to get were you want him to get. The book is more calmed, mature and less sexy than the first one. But it is still a delightful read, specially at the last chapter where you finally got to the prize. It’s a happy ending to me, but also a mature happy ending and ending it on a pastry shop away from Italy takes any cheesiness away. Thanks.

UGG! Not even close to Call me by your Name. Good Lord what a disappointment. Skip this and revisit CMBYN. So disappointed and sad because I was really looking forward to this. It just drones on and on and it’s just a shame.

Beautiful continuation to the CMBYN story. I personally really enjoyed reading this. It’s compelling and full of passion, romance and self exploration. Though I did find the ending chapter somewhat displeasing, the last couple pages completely makes up for it! I will say, do not go into this comparing it to CMBYN. You will adore and appreciate the beauty of Find Me once you acknowledge it as it’s own. Thank you André Aciman Will be reading this again soon!

A good sequel. Many people will probably say they wanted more Elio, but I think the first part of the book featuring his father set up the rest of the book well. I enjoyed it.

Amazing. Amazing book loved seeing so many parts to it with different time frames

A Separate Work. I would personally not call this a true sequel. Without going into details that would spoil the book I did not feel that it was a continuation nor did it feel as if a sequel was ever planned. This instead felt like a decent story that was hastily rebranded to cash in on the popularity of his previous work.

WANT TO READ. i can’t wait to finally be able to get my fingers on this book, i know i won’t be able to stop reading it. when i get the money i will instantly buy this book. i already know it will be 5 stars! i can’t wait!

Amazing. Just what was needed after CMBYN

Brilliant!. This book, just like Call Me By Your Name, was written beautifully. The end of Find Me, however was a little displeasing, but other than that, I would read it a million times more.

BEAUTIFUL SEQUEL. i love the ending and i can’t wait to see this book be made into a movie ♥️

An awful sequel. As an avid fan of Call Me By Your Name, this book peeved me. It has nearly nothing to do with Oliver and Elio - the epilogue of Call Me By Your Name seemed a more fitting end to the story than this drivel. It’s clear Aciman was too focused on not telling the same story, to the point where he wrote a book which has nearly nothing in common. I was angry and bitter the whole way through, and I can’t think of a single other book that’s made me feel this way.

Misinformed. The readers of this book and the writers of most of these comments are misinformed. They presume that the overarching story is of Eliot and Oliver but this is a tale of love and the inner tangling of people’s lives. The parables that Miranda’s father tells are a metaphor for life, and love, as well as this series. These books teach a lesson of life and time not being in sync with one another. The lesson “isn’t time that is wrong for us, or we for time. It may be life itself that is wrong.” And both books act as parables of great detail to further this idea. These books are profound and lovely.

Why y’all mad?!. I don’t know why people are having so many issues with this book. You get a deep dive into Ellio and his fathers life after CMBYN and it ends exactly how you want it to.

A pretty decent sequel and a nice conclusion. Whew! I’m so happy to finally have read this sequel ever since watching CMBYN movie and listening to the audiobook multiple times—I had to know the ending and I’m glad I just found out about this story in 2022 or it would have haunted me! I first want to say that I appreciate Aciman taking the time to finish this story and bend the laws of time to give us an alternative—I like Samuel Perlman as a character and I didn’t mind the focus being on him for the 1st half of the story— I just felt his love story was a bit hasty for my liking. I would have preferred something a bit more fleshed out (my biggest concern with this sequel)Now as for Elio—I love him as a character especially since CMBYN and my heart was really full at the conclusion of this story. I loved CMBYN more, but this story is appreciated and together this entire story has really impacted my life so greatly and I will cherish it dearly.

A beautiful sequel to a lovely story of love…. I felt lost in the beginning with the book, but as I read on, it all came back, it all made sense, it worked. The story of love was completed.

Pretty good. I think this book was good, lot as good as the original thoough. Also i hate the dad i did not care for over 100 pages to be just about him

I needed this closure.... but I need more of Elio - his struggles and how he tried to build his life without Oliver. Or how he lived a life knowing Oliver will eventually “Find Him.”

Great. I loved this book

Find me. Absolutely captivating; i feel this book and the companion “Call me by your name” spoke to me unlike any two books Ive ever read! Very erotic in a most respectful and chaste way. I think we all can think back and wonder where the time went and ponder why when we really already know.
