SUMMARY:André Aciman & Sarah Maxwell-McNicol: Call Me by Your Name: The Graphic Novel with E. Alex Jung
DESCRIPTION:Join bestselling author André Aciman and illustrator Sarah Maxwell-McNicol for a special celebration of Call Me by Your Name: The Graphic Novel\, a beautifully illustrated adaptation of one of the most beloved queer novels of the twenty-first century. Moderated by New York Magazine writer E. Alex Jung\, the evening explores how a modern literary classic has been transformed into a new visual experience while preserving the emotional intimacy that made the original novel an international phenomenon. \nFirst published in 2007\, Call Me by Your Name tells the unforgettable story of Elio Perlman and Oliver\, whose passionate summer romance unfolds on the Italian Riviera. Aciman’s lyrical novel captured the exhilaration and vulnerability of first love with uncommon honesty\, earning widespread acclaim before inspiring Luca Guadagnino’s Academy Award-winning 2017 film adaptation. Nearly two decades later\, the story continues to resonate with readers through its timeless exploration of desire\, memory\, and longing. \nIllustrated by Sarah Maxwell-McNicol\, the graphic novel offers a fresh interpretation of Elio and Oliver’s relationship through expressive artwork that evokes the warmth\, beauty\, and emotional intensity of the original text. During the conversation\, Aciman and McNicol will discuss the creative process of adapting a literary classic into graphic form\, the unique challenges of visual storytelling\, and why Call Me by Your Name continues to find new audiences around the world. \nModerating the discussion is acclaimed journalist E. Alex Jung\, whose thoughtful interviews and cultural criticism have made him one of today’s most respected arts writers. The evening will conclude with a book signing\, and additional copies of the graphic novel will be available for purchase. The event will also be livestreamed\, allowing readers outside New York to participate in the conversation.
