Inferno by Dante Alighieri

maresreads's review against another edition

4.0

lets be honestt this was bible fanfiction, but like... it slays.

Dante and Virgil are top tier ship and they deserve a ´song of achilles´ treatment.
btw, Achilles was in the Hell-circle of horny people (yes it was the most unhiged thing i ever read)

despite that, i´m still deeply disturbed from that dude who ate his sons...
"than hunger proved a greater power than grief" (Canto 33)
WTF Dante!!!!

J'ai beaucoup aimé ma lecture malgré la difficulté à saisir certains détails et noms, en particulier dans la dernière partie de l'œuvre. Je pense que je le relirai.

this book definitely checks the box "Are the flaws of the main character(s) a main focus of the book?"
wasn't horribly boring, better than Paradise Lost, easier to read
