Aciman describes people and places very well. His writing is beautiful. My problem with this book is the same problem I had with the movie. Pretty much all of the characters are aware that a fully grown adult is having a sexual affair with a 17-year-old, but not one of them expresses any concern about it. Instead they treat it like a cute little fling.
Anna40 Yes! The scene he describes when Oliver came into his room and he pretended to sleep was creepy and sounded like attempted rape and the narrator kept saying how much he enjoyed it! 😳 2y
