Irgendwie hat mich das Buch nicht besonders gefesselt. Ich habe den Film gesehen und dieser hat mir wirklich gut gefallen, weshalb ich das Buch lesen wollte. Im Buch befindet man sich durchgehend im Kopf von Elio und seine Gedanken sind teilweise schwer nachvollziehbar. Allgemein fand ich es einfach wird geschrieben.
Erst einmal ist es eine sehr schöne Geschichte über die ersten Erfahrungen die ein Jugendlicher mit der Liebe macht und allem was zu ihr gehört. Auch das Setting ist natürlich ein absoluter Traum: Italien, Meer, Villa, Pfirsichbäume, Sonne ... Was mich sehr gestört hat, war der Altersunterschied der beiden Protagonisten. Dadurch fand ich die anfängliche Obsession ab einem gewissen Punkt anstrengend und kam nicht mehr wirklich in die Geschichte rein. Ich nehme mir vor das Buch in ein paar Monaten nocheinmal zu lesen und hoffe, dass ich dann mehr zwischen den Zeilen entdecken kann.
I loved reading it again it's still one of my favorite books. I like the kinda poetic writing style it's very beautiful. The setting and descriptions letting my mind travel to the villa of Elios family. I almost can feel the heat of the Italian sun and taste all those food and wine. “We are not written for one instrument alone: I am not. neither are you.” “Or are "being" and "having" thoroughly inaccurate verbs in the twisted skein of desire, where having someone's body to touch and being that someone we're longing to touch are one and the same, just opposite banks on a river that passes from us to them, back to us and over to them again in this perpetual circuit where the chambers of the heart, like the trapdoors of desire, and the wormholes of time, and the false-bottomed drawer we call identity share a beguiling logic according to which the shortest distance between real life and the life unlived, between who we are and what we want, is a twisted staircase designed with the impish cruelty of M. C. Escher.” “There'll never be a friendship, I thought, this is nothing, just a minute of grace. Zwischen Immer und Nie. Zwischen Immer und Nie. Between always and never. Celan.”
Lass dich in einen Sommer in Italien entführen und erlebe wie ein Junge seine Sexualität und Liebe entdeckt. Für mich irgendwie ein Klassiker und schön geschrieben. Die Charaktere haben ihre Stärken und Schwächen, was sie nahbar und authentisch macht. Eine schöne Geschichte.
Durch André Aciman habe ich lieben und geliebt werden auf eine neue Art und Weise verstanden.
