Latino representation in the literary and publishing community is startlingly low -- a survey conducted by Lee & Low Books and Boston University in 2020, found that a mere 6% of publishers identify as Latino. There are just a few books for such a large and diverse group – the quickest growing population in America. Both “Aristotle and Dante Discover the Secrets of the Universe” by Benjamin Alire Sáenz and “Out of Darkness” by Ashley Hope Pérez explore what it means to be Latino. Both books are also poignant love stories: "Aristotle and Dante” is a lyrically written depiction of first LGBTQ+ love, while “Out of Darkness” is, ultimately, an honest and brutal look at racism and sexism in the 1930s.
