Call Me by Your Name first swept across the world in 2007. It is the story of a sudden and powerful romance that blossoms between an adolescent boy and a summer guest at his parents' cliffside mansion on the Italian Riviera. During the restless summer weeks, unrelenting but buried currents of obsession, fascination, and desire intensify their passion as they test the charged ground between them and verge toward the one thing both already fear they may never truly find again: total intimacy. André Aciman's critically acclaimed debut novel is a frank, unsentimental, heartrending elegy to human passion.

More praise for Call Me By Your Name:

"Hammer’s soft, velvety voice lends itself perfectly to the story and its Italian setting. While you might think this one isn’t worth a listen if you’ve already seen the movie or read the book, many reviewers say it is still worth taking in even if you know the story - some even say it’s worth listening to more than once." (AskMen)

Editor reviews

Editors Select, October 2017

Andre Aciman's critically acclaimed novel may finally be stepping into modern classic status, having recently emerged from relative obscurity due to the upcoming movie release starring Armie Hammer. And its place in the literary canon is well deserved, depicting perfectly the infatuated experience of first love (I won't say "feeling" because the picture Aciman paints is not a singular "thing" - it's very much a journey through obsession). The story is beautiful, erotic, and feels firmly rooted in human truths (and will make you blush). But what makes it truly worthy of listening to - and why it's my pick for October - is THAT voice. Armie Hammer's narration is among the best I've ever experienced. —Emily, Audible Editor

Critic reviews

"...Hammer's voice is brimming with such melody that, if you listen to it long enough, you can probably get drunk off it." (Vulture.com)

"...Armie Hammer (who plays Oliver in the movie) steps effortlessly into Elio's interior world. The result is staggering." (BookRiot)

A beautiful story, beautifully read.

There’s a wonderful lyrical quality to Andre Aciman’s writing that suits the gentle musical soul of Elio. For those (like me) who came to this book via the film, there’s both a strangeness and a familiarity to it. The story takes a number of different turns, and explores some interesting cul-de-sacs, but at its core the best moments were directly translated to the film - and that’s why it works so well. It’s also why the audio reading by Armie Hammer is so perfectly suited and sympathetic. I’ll be thinking about this for a long time to come, as a touching and beautiful romance of our times.

I cried.

I struggled a bit at the start. It seemed a bit too intelligent...but maybe that's the point. This is not your typical gay trope novel, neither is it a story that you have no experience of. Love, connections, intimacy...wether for a night, a week, a month, a year, or a lifetime, we've all felt it. we understood it. we miss it. Call Me By Your Name examines that love.

The performance by Armie Hammer is first class and gave the story an extra element. His accent had me wishing I could hear more.

Magical, breathtaking and comforting.

This book is my absolute lifetime favourite. Always has been since I read it in full about a year ago. Now the audio book just adds to the heart of this book. Armie Hammer narrating is just perfection and sits so nicely within the flow of the audio book. This is my favourite thing to listen to. Its calming yet, heart wrenching. Beautiful masterpiece.

The shear bliss of this book

This book felt like a step back where I could fall into “somewhere in Italy”. It was beautiful and complex, twisting in ways that make the mind truly think.

Love, love, LOVE!

Having been a huge fan of the book for a long time I was ecstatic to discover that they would be making a film too. When I watched (and adored) it, it made me really want to read the book again, until I read that Armie Hammer was the one to narrate the Audible version. I love Audible books to help me sleep and Armie’s voice is beautiful to listen and relax to. The fact that he is reading one of my favourite novels is even better!
I love everything about Call Me By Your Name; book, film and now audiobook!
P.s - more Armie Hammer narrations please!
