Information on Dante's Divine Comedy from the publisher:
Because the deep-felt needs Dante addressed are universal and powerfully personal, Dante speaks to major concerns in contemporary American culture. But most of today's Dante commentators focus on his literary brilliance and subtlety rather than the brilliance and subtlety of his perception of the human condition. Thus readers need a new prose version of The Divine Comedy with accompanying notes that emphasize the sly wit and startling moral, psychological, and spiritual wisdom at its heart.
Description of Kathryn Lindskoog, author of Dante's Divine Comedy:
The Divine Comedy is perhaps the greatest Christian classic ever written, and probably the greatest adventure story ever told. This clear new version with unique aids makes the fascinating story accessible to such readers today. Those who love Dante best as a storyteller and teacher will find in this book what they have been waiting for...the freshest, clearest, most exact, and most readable Divine Comedy in the English language, with full-page illustrations and original notes. This book is supplemented by references to Dorothy Sayers, C.S. Lewis, and many other Dante commentators.
