Meine letzte Rezension Call Me By Your Name. Film Tie-In von Andre Aciman
he is more myself than i am. having watched the movie a million times already it was finally time for me to pick up the book. I did not regret it as its so much more than the film. The levels of emotional intelligence and affection, but also hatred and longing, are deeper and better depicted between the lines of the novel than on screen. no news there though. movie adaptations can never be as profound as their original source material. luca guadagnino still did an incredibly beautiful job. but andré aciman dives so much deeper and doesnt frame the story around just that one summer. we get flashbacks, time jumps and little glimpses into the future near the end of the book. those moments are honestly crucial to understanding the full weight of the story, which is why i now need to rewatch the film again. elio being seventeen and thinking he knows more than everyone thinks he does because he grew up in this intellectual professor household is somehow so endearing to me. when youre seventeen you truly believe you already understand life while simultaneously only just beginning to experience it. it reminded me so much of the taylor swift and phoebe bridgers lyric: “how can a person know everything at 18 but nothing at 22?” andré aciman writes desire and memory in such an intimate way that sometimes it feels almost invasive to read, like you accidentally stumbled into someones real thoughts. theres something very melancholic about the entire novel. even during the happiest moments you can already feel that everything is temporary. it’s always “later” until oliver says goodbye to elio. and suddenly later becomes too late.

    The Emperor of Gladness

    to remember is to fill the present with the past. this book feels like remembering everything. only past, filling the present. have you ever watched an A24 movie? yeah. the emperor of gladness is like walking through a dream you only half remember. from days when nothing happens to moments when everything comes crushing in. it was my first time reading ocean vuong, and definitely not the last. his words didn’t just sit on the page, they kind of… melted into me. like emotions you didn’t know you were carrying suddenly had a language. this book made me think, feel, remember. no flashy twists or wild plots. just raw, poetic life and somehow, that’s enough. xin cảm ơn vương quốc vinh.

    A Little Life

    pain, agony even. this novel should be read with caution and a therapist appointment booked and ready. i like reading while listening to sad music, but nothing in my entire spotify library, and trust me, it’s tragic, could capture what this book does to you. it didn’t just hit emotionally, it rearranged something physical in me. hanya yanagihara doesn’t write characters, she writes open wounds. i felt jude’s pain so intensely it was like borrowing his trauma for 800 pages. not in a cute, “i love sad books” way, in a real, “i might never recover” way. please pick literally any other book for your light summer reading. seriously.

    Hard Land

    Wer noch nach Sommerlektüren schaut, dem empfehle ich Benedict Wells Romane. Insbesondere Hard Land, sein neuester Roman. Hard Land fühlt sich an wie ein endloser Sommer, nur ohne Sonnenschutz für die Seele. Es brennt nach, wie ein Sonnenbrand aus Erinnerungen, Bittersüß. Eine Coming of Age Novelle mit Hitzewelle in den 80ern. Möchte man jedoch eher in die Moderne tauchen, hat Benedict Wells auch dafür passende Stories.

    Vigil

    who else could you have been but exactly who you are? weddings, death, past and present all in one summer evening. reading this felt a bit like being stuck inside someone elses head, in a good way though. confusing at times, but intentional.. for both life and death are just like that. its short, almost fleeting, but it leaves something behind. not loud, not dramatic, just there. one of those reads that makes you pause for a second after finishing, even if you cant fully explain why. in a satisfactory kind of way though.

    Coraline

    this very light literature is for those who adore explorimg. it is very different from the movie so if you have watched that already you can still read the book and find out new details, plots and storylines. this applies to every book to movie adaptation btw. although the story takes place during summer coraline is such an autumnal classic. there is only one big set, the house. ecxept for one scene in one chapter the entire book takes place at home. or the other home. i adored reading this. it has been on my reading list for so long. now that i finally snatched my own copy i finally could. theres only 160 pages, i couldve read that book in like three days or even less. but i wanted to enjoy it and let the aesthetic linger, let the plot simmer. so it took me two weeks. so worth it. coraline is simply a modern classic.

    Open, Heaven

    “now i was afraid that i would never be myself without him, that if he left id always be stuck here, half made, only just beginning.” a slow burn, i dare say. the empty pages at the very end of the book tell it all. seán hewitt himself said to read this during summertime, which i did, and i have to disagree. this is pure autumn: crisp air, fading light, leaves curling at the edges. this debut novel was everything i want in a book: sad, hopeful melancholy with a hint of nonchalance and some poetry. it lingers like the last lines of a song you cant quite forget. if this doesnt end up a bestseller, i truly don’t know whats wrong with yall.

    Ambivalenz

    paris in den 70ern und 80ern. nur 120 seiten, aber die tragen mehr ambivalenz in sich als so manche bücher mit 5 facher seitenzahl. innerhalb von zwei stunden, ohne pause, war ich damit schon durch. eine leichte lektüre im umfang, aber nicht in der wirkung. die familie guillaume hat alles, was man auf dem papier so will, bildung, geld, ansehen, und gleichzeitig fehlt ihnen das, was man nicht lernen oder kaufen kann: liebe. nähe. miteinander. und das ausgerechnet in paris, der stadt der liebe. amélie nothomb schreibt das alles so trocken, scharf und beiläufig, dass man fast übersieht, wie tief es eigentlich geht. ein kleiner roman, der viel zu sagen hat, wenn man hinhört.

    Cinema Love

    going in i hoped to read more of the cinema story itself. but that story truly is only a part of a grander scheme, deservably so. it is also not a coming of age story as i thought it would be. as we dive into a china being modernized and drift into an immigrant america we learn how to live with grieve of both, the dead and alive. and i think its beautiful how the ending is piecing it all together. there’s a quiet rhythm to the way jiaming tang writes, like hes letting you sit in the silences between sentences. the characters feel both ordinary and larger than life, and even when they’re far from the cinema, you still feel its shadow over everything. its less about the movies themselves and more about the stories we carry, and how we keep replaying them in our heads long after the credits roll.
