André Aciman’s new novel
by Habitus · 02/23/10
Our friend and adviser André Aciman has a new novel out, a follow up to his “hot” Call Me By Your Name. The first chapter is excerpted in the New York Times, so read it here.
Aciman is best known for his memoir Out of Egypt, recounting the story of his Alexandrian-Jewish family’s exile. He revisited some of its themes last year, after Obama’s speech in Cairo, in a fascinating op-ed called “The Exodus Obama Forgot to Mention.”
He will be speaking about his new book tonight at the New York Public Library.
