Book
Aristotle and Dante dive into the waters of the world / Benjamin Alire Sáenz.
In this achingly romantic, tender tale set against the backdrop of the AIDS epidemic in 1980s America, Aristotle and Dante, two boys in a border town fell in love. Now they must learn what it means to stay in love-and to build their relationship in a world that doesn't seem to want them to exist. In their senior year at two different schools, the boys find ways to spend time together, like a camping road trip they take in the desert. Ari is haunted by his incarcerated older brother and by the images he sees on the nightly news of gay men dying from AIDS. Tragedy feels like his destiny, but can he forge his own path and create a life where he can not only survive, but thrive?
