Description - The Divine Comedy: Inferno by Dante Alighieri

A Penguin Classic
This vigorous translation of Inferno preserves Dante's simple, natural style, and captures the swift movement of the original Italian verse.

Musa's introduction and commentaries on each of the cantos brilliantly illuminate the text.
