Whether the setting is southern Italy, where as a boy he has a crush on his parents' cabinetmaker, or a snowbound campus in New England, where his enduring passion for a girl he'll meet again and again over the years is punctuated by anonymous encounters with men--whether he's on a tennis court in Central Park or on a New York sidewalk in early spring. Paul's attachments are ungraspable, transient, and forever underwritten by raw desire. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eAhead of every step Paul takes, his hopes, denials, fears, and regrets are always ready to lay their traps. Yet the dream of love lingers. We may not always know what we want. We may remain enigmas to ourselves and to others. But sooner or later, we discover who we've always known we were.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAndr\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb\u003eé\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb\u003e Aciman\u003c\/b\u003e is the author of \u003ci\u003eEight White Nights\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eCall Me by Your Name\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eOut of Egypt\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eFalse Papers\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eAlibis, \u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eHarvard Square\u003c\/i\u003e, and the editor of \u003ci\u003eThe Proust Project\u003c\/i\u003e (all published by FSG).
