Me And You Résumé

Me And You Niccolo Ammaniti

EVERYBODY NEEDS SOMEBODY, SOMETIMES . . .

Lorenzo Cuni is a fourteen-year-old loner. His wealthy parents think he is away on a school skiing trip, but, in fact, he has stowed away in a forgotten cellar. He plans to live in perfect isolation for a week, keeping the adult world at bay.

Then a visit from his estranged half-sister, Olivia, changes everything.

The new Italian word for talent is Ammaniti. * * The Times * *
A fearsomely gifted writer. * * Independent * *
A master storyteller. * * Guardian * *
The story of a young boy who's heading towards adulthood. This book amazed me -- Bernardo Bertolucci
Near perfect [...] this small gem of storytelling has the balance just about right. * * Scotland on Sunday * *
Ammaniti's matter-of-fact, unadorned prose captures Lorenzo's angst-ridden, incomprehending world-view with a confident clarity, and as resolution back in the present day beckons, he plots the course of their filial relationship with a deft, understated skill -- Bram E Gieben * * The Skinny * *
Me and You is a slim volume which takes only a couple of hours to read. But thanks to the skilfully presented Lorenzo and the poignant reconciliation of the boy with his half-sister, it lingers in the memory for much, much longer -- Alastair Mabbott * * The Herald * *
