2022 #FReadom read 2/20
5 stars
Book 2/20 on my 2022 #FReadom list: Aristotle and Dante Discover the Secrets of the Universe by Benjamin Alire Sáenz. Rich exploration of the many things that teenagers (and adults) don't talk about, and why, and what happens when they finally emerge aloud. Highly recommend. Also, Aristotle and Dante introduced me to W S Merwin (1927-2019), whose poetry Benjamin Alire Sáenz wove subtly throughout. www.poetryfoundation.org/poems/52502/in-the-winter-of-my-thirty-eighth-year
