From AndrAciman, the author of Call Me by Your Name (now a major motion picture and the winner of the Oscar(TM) for Best Adapted Screenplay) comes a sensory masterclass, absorbing, intelligent, unforgettable (Times Literary Supplement).Enigma Variations charts the life of a man named Paul, whose loves remain as consuming and as covetous throughout his adulthood as they were in his adolescence. 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 hell meet again and again over the years is punctuated by anonymous encounters with men--whether hes on a tennis court in Central Park or on a New York sidewalk in early spring. Pauls attachments are ungraspable, transient, and forever underwritten by raw desire.Ahead 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 weve always known we were.
