Publisher Description

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.

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

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.

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.
