<p><b>'<i>Call Me By Your Name</i> meets Evelyn Waugh in a gorgeous novel about the generations-long aftershocks of a youthful tryst' — <i>Esquire</i><br><br>From the winner of the Man Booker Prize, a masterly novel that spans seven transformative decades as it plumbs the complex relationships of a remarkable family.</b><br><br>In October 1940, the handsome young David Sparsholt arrives in Oxford. A keen athlete and oarsman, he at first seems unaware of the effect he has on others – particularly on the lonely and romantic Evert Dax, son of a celebrated novelist and destined to become a writer himself.

Over the course of one momentous term, David and Evert forge an unlikely friendship that will colour their lives for decades to come . . .<br&g
