This luxurious edition of Dante’s timeless classic belongs on every book lover’s bookshelf.
The Inferno is the first part of Dante’s masterpiece, The Divine Comedy . In this epic poem, Dante is led by the poet Virgil into the nine circles of Hell—limbo, lust, gluttony, greed, anger, heresy, violence, fraud, and treachery—culminating in a meeting with Satan himself. Along the way, he meets a number of interesting figures. The Divine Comedy , written in the early fourteenth century by Dante Alighieri, continues to be essential reading for lovers of literature.
