Aristóteles y Dante descubren los secretos del universo

by Benjamin Alire Sáenz

Overview

Aristóteles es introvertido y tímido. Dante es transparente y expresivo. Por motivos que parecen escapar a toda razón, estos dos chicos de diecisiete años se encuentran y construyen una amistad entrañable que les permitirá redefinir el mundo del otro y aprender a creer en ellos mismos para descubrir los secretos del universo. El escritor multipremiado, Benjamin Alire Sáenz, explora la lealtad y la confianza entre dos jóvenes que están aprendiendo a ser adultos en un escenario fronterizo tan mexicano como estadounidense. Juntos deberán crecer al mismo tiempo en que se adaptan a una sociedad que también está búsqueda, identidad.
