    Summary

    I've decided to flip the script! Elio is a foreign exchange student from Italy who is staying with a family in California during his senior year of high school. He meets their son, Oliver, and romance ensues! The story is set in modern day.

    Please don't repost my work without my permission :)

    I don't own these characters, they own me :)

    The title of my series: "More Myself than I Am" comes from a quote from Wuthering Heights, which was referred to in the book:

    "He is more myself than I am, whatever our souls are made of, his and mine are the same."

    Summary

    During a summer vacation in Northern Italy, Oliver's ineffectual command of the Italian language means he ends up embarrassing himself in front of the cute boy he hopes to impress. Repeatedly.

    But at least the object of Oliver’s affections seems to find his behaviour endearing, as shown when Oliver's new crush Elio offers to act as his translator during the remaining three weeks of Oliver's vacation. Of course, it isn't long until Oliver finds himself falling for his new companion, and consequently dreading the moment when he will have to leave Italy, and Elio, for good...

    Summary

    Oliver has been living the life that has always been expected of him since he stepped foot back in New York- he'd gotten engaged, got a job as a professor at Columbia University on the fast track to becoming the department head in ten years, and had found a wonderful two bedroom apartment close to work- but he couldn't move on from his summer spent at the Perlman's villa a year ago. His life had become a mind numbing routine of work and delayed wedding plans until one afternoon, he'd received a call from Professor Samuel Perlman. It seems Elio has chosen his college and Oliver's life is about to get much more interesting.

    Summary

    Elio and Oliver reminisce and reconnect over a summer correspondence. Set in 1984, one year after their summer together in Italy.

    Though this story could stand alone, it is set immediately after the first story in this series, "The Three-Month-Old Letter," so you would probably enjoy it more if you read that story first. "A Summer in Letters" is set mostly in the CMBYN movieverse, with bits of the bookverse thrown in here and there. Your comments mean so much and help me become a better writer!

    Oliver,
    I lied, I do mind.

    Summary

    This fanfic continues right after we are left with Elio missing Oliver. There will be lots of back and forth flashbacks where Elio is reminiscing the time he had with Oliver. Some characters may be filled in by my own imagination and I will also be filling in some parts of Oliver's life that is not stated in the novel. This will be in Elio's perspective most of the time but, I plan on doing some chapters in Oliver's perspective as well. All rights go to the amazing André Aciman, I will do my best to evoke the similar vibe he introduces in his own novels. *I think it would also be good if you read the book and watched the movie first to get some references here and there!*

    Summary

    When the world was purged into silence, everyone knew:

    They hear you,

    They hunt you.

    And following those rules kept you alive, kept your family alive. It kept you safe, as if safety was an option.

    Living on a farm was Elio’s life. And the quiet was all he knew. And he would have never guessed that the tall blonde man with the salmon colored dirt encrusted shorts would change everything for him.

    Summary

    20 + years after Summer of '83, Elio goes to visit Oliver in New York. Oliver is newly divorced, a Professor and is trying to rebuild his life after the breakdown of his marriage. Over the years, the two have remained in contact with the occasional meetings. The divorce has come as a relief to Oliver, a mutual decision with the later realisation of just how different his life could have been had he followed his heart and been true to himself all those years before.
    For the first time in his life, Oliver is living as his authentic self. Free from judgement and societal pressure, he's finally being true to who he is and living with the guilt of what he'd lost.
    In a new apartment in Uptown New York, he's in his mid-forties, a father and now-single. The love of his life has come to visit and perhaps this reunion has brought the opportunity at a second chance for him and Elio, if he's honest and vulnerable enough to apologise for all those years apart (and the courage to live as an openly queer man.)
