When Aristotle and Dante Discover the Secrets of the Universe came out in 2012, though touted as ‘young adult” novel, it captured the hearts of readers young and old, transporting them to the confusing yet magical world of young love.
Nine years on, this much-awaited sequel picks up right where the first book left off.
Ari’s world is shattered when he encounters an unexpected loss. As he copes with it and confronts difficult questions about his identity, he and Dante must navigate the winding paths of their relationship in a world that is determined to make them feel alienated.
Benjamin Alire Sáenz has a knack for addressing deeply relevant issues like racism, sexism, homophobia, identity, mental health and family through his intimate and emotional storytelling.
Published by Simon & Schuster, Aristotle and Dante Dive Into the Waters of the World carries Ari and Dante’s story forward in a heartwarming tale of love, longing and loss.
