As Johanna Thomas-Corr wrote in \u003ci\u003eThe Times\u003c\/i\u003e (London): “You don’t so much read André Aciman’s novels as tumble breathlessly into them.”\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn \u003ci\u003eRoom on the Sea\u003c\/i\u003e, Aciman offers three heart-wrenching tales of amorous ambivalence, all of which unfold in his inimitably nostalgic style. “The Gentleman from Peru” tells the story of the life-changing encounter between a group of friends and an enigmatic solitary guest in a hotel on the Amalfi Coast. “Room on the Sea” is a dialogue between a man and a woman who meet on jury duty and embark on a complex relationship. “Mariana” is a modern retelling of a famous seventeenth-century novel about a love affair between a nun and a swashbuckling, unreliable aristocrat. Together, Aciman’s novellas form a complex portrait of desire, and of love realized and lost.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"André Aciman","offers":[{"title":"New - Paperback","offer_id":53058736718141,"sku":null,"price":25.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0709\/0831\/3917\/files\/BNCImageAPI_f810c3db-8033-43b3-bafc-cedd56047955.jpg?v=1789135189","url":"https:\/\/thebookarchive.ca\/products\/room-on-the-sea","provider":"The Book Archive","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
