ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK

Aristotle and Dante Discover the Secrets of the Universe follows the story of two Mexican-American boys, Aristotle "Ari" Mendoza and Dante Quintana, as they navigate the complexities of identity, family, and self-acceptance. Set in the 1980s, the novel explores their deepening friendship, which eventually grows into an emotional and transformative relationship. As Ari grapples with his feelings for Dante, he must also confront the expectations of masculinity, cultural identity, and emotional vulnerability. Themes of love, family dynamics, and personal growth are central, highlighting the struggles and beauty of coming-of-age in a world that often marginalizes differences.
