    Summary

    “Do you have any idea?” Oliver asks then, one palm spanning bone and tendon as the other sweeps the subtle curve of Elio’s waist; summoning a trail of goosebumps en route to his tailbone. “How beautiful you are?”

    Summary

    A memory comes to the surface of Elio’s mind. And with it, comes a question, carrying a burning need to be asked.

    “Do you still think it was worth it?” Elio’s voice is quiet and his eyes are distant. He’s tired. Really tired. “To have spoken?”

    To have kept the pain? To have loved?

    It takes a long moment for his father to respond.

    “Do you?”

    Summary

    Numb, in the main - yet equally livid his path in life was determined without him - Elio can’t dismiss the emotions Oliver unleashed, so the innate certainty he’ll never experience them again cuts sharper than a blade.

    Summary

    Next to him, Oliver’s a vision of Praxitelean proportions. Blond hair mussed from the constant carding of Elio’s fingers. Bunched cotton sheets barely clinging to his deliciously-rounded derriere as he sleeps the sleep of the recently debauched.

    Summary

    В книге Асимана Оливер навещает Элио на Рождество, чтобы рассказать о своей помолвке. Он ведет себя с Элио, как с незнакомцем, не прикасается и держит дистанцию. Элио Асимана прощает Оливера, но что, если бы он этого не сделал?
    События происходят через пару лет после их расставания. Элио живет в Лондоне и учится на композитора, а Оливер женат (детей нет) и вдруг появляется из ниоткуда. То, что Элио недоволен, - это мягко сказано.

    Summary

    The connection they forged that long-ago summer refuses to fade. Understandably so, when they’d both fallen irrevocably: hard and heedless; regardless of the pain. They were a part of each other, no doubt. Yet strived to be the best part, also. And here and now nothing remains to stand between them. Nothing else beyond magnolia-painted walls and generic prints of the Seattle skyline.

    Summary

    Four years after their summer romance,
    Elio attends Oliver‘s class at Columbia and both their worlds start to unravel.

    This is my take on a fix-it and personal love letter to the book,
    mind you, it's very self indulgent.

    Summary

    Elio shuffles closer, checking his watch by the flickering candle. “Mazel tov,” he replies, pressing a kiss to his stubbly jowl. “I hope you’re wearing your lucky red boxers, mon chéri.”

    Summary

    “Regarde toi…” Elio murmurs, smothering a tipsy hiccup in the crease of their overstuffed pillow. “You look happy.”

    Oliver huffs. “I am happy,” he says, leaning in for a kiss: his clumsy tongue flavoured with the musky essence of Elio’s previous release.

    “I still can't believe I get to do this…” Oliver murmurs then - completely at odds with his confident demeanour.

    Summary

    He’s thirty-seven, for pity’s sake. Yet here he is. Behaving like his horny teenage persona as every creak of the mattress springs reminds him inexorably of the summer of ‘83.

    Summary

    His red-rimmed eyes hold a dull, wretched sheen as Elio puts an end to his manic pacing; planting one palm on his heaving sternum. His left, he slides to Oliver’s nape - tugging him into a clumsy embrace - and with both arms snaking to Elio’s waist it doesn’t take long for the tears to fall; soaking the collar of his slate-grey polo shirt with each irregular breath.

    Summary

    October 1991

    The Perlman’s had created a safe place to land for so many lost souls. And here they were, wayward men who sought refuge from life’s storms in the same place, at the same time. It felt like a torturous, sadistic, hopelessly romantic kind of fate.

    Summary

    It’s wet and biting. Frenzied: almost. Oliver stumbles as Elio tugs him backwards, and circling his sun-bronzed cheekbone with the pad of his thumb he lets him know that everything’s okay. That he’s safe. That he’s allowed to want this.

    Summary

    It’s a lot to take onboard. That he’s fallen for someone who not only wants him, but sees him in all the ways Elio’s ever ached to be seen. Who understands him in all the ways no one else has done before. Someone who’s patient, and kind, and makes him feel like his desires are valid. Precious. Worthy of the pleasure they undoubtedly bring.

    Summary

    The older one, Oliver, suddenly held his hand, shaking it, and then handed him his very own backpack. It wasn't a good first expression.

    “Is your father home?” He asked without even looking at him. And then, another question. “Which way to the beach?”

    Elio was thoroughly intimidated. Oliver seemed like the unapproachable sort. But then the other voice spoke.

    “Jesus, have some decency,” A younger man muttered. Elio was almost sure he rolled his eyes, but black sunglasses covered that movement. He didn’t hand Elio his backpack or suitcase; he just glared at Oliver. “Don’t be a douche.”

    or: oliver didn't came alone. someone was with him. a nineteen-year-old elijah changed everything.

    Summary

    Elio has the worst luck. He tries kissing a statue once—just once!—and of course it has to be his father’s new research assistant who shows up at that very moment. You know, the handsome one; the one Elio has a mortifying crush on.

    “How long were you standing there?” He was desperate, thinking whether the man had seen him do it all: the caress of the ear, the hand on the cheek—the whole deal. The man grinned. “Long enough.”
