Eight White Nights: Andre Aciman

A powerfully original novel of modern love by the author of Call Me By Your Name.

A man in his late twenties goes to a large Christmas party in Manhattan where a woman introduces herself with three words: `I am Clara.` Over the following seven days, they meet every evening in the snowy city. Overwhelmed yet cautious, he treads softly and won`t hazard a move. But as they move closer together, this amorous dance builds towards a New Year`s Eve charged with magic, the promise of renewal and love.
