About the book

Dante Alighieri's Divine Comedy follows the poet through Hell, Purgatory and Heaven in an imagined spiritual journey. Guided first by Virgil and later by Beatrice, Dante encounters historical, mythological and religious figures while exploring sin, justice, redemption and divine love. The poem is one of the foundational masterpieces of European literature.
