Aristotle and Dante Discover the Secrets of the Universe | Pt 3 Ch 3-5 -Rules, Gratitude, and Hospital Stays

Send us a Text Message.

Jennifer and Dan read chapters 3 to 5 of part three of "Aristotle and Dante Discover the Secrets of the Universe" by Benjamin Alire Sáenz, where Ari's hospital recovery is fraught with emotional and physical challenges. For someone who is a total lightweight and who has never taken an illicit drug in his life, Dan really does seem like he is hooked on hospital morphine. Jennifer's witty takes on Ari's stubbornness add a lighthearted touch to the emotional narrative.

Things To Listen For:

• Ari's complex feelings towards Dante and his recovery
• The role of rules in Ari's coping mechanism
• Jennifer and Dan's humorous insights on hospital stays and morphine
• The emotional and physical impact of Ari's accident on his relationships
• The hosts' banter about accepting gratitude and love
