Dante's Inferno (Dramatised) (Abridged) Audiobook

" This book is strange and interesting, with important insights. It was an enjoyable read. "

" Pretty weird. This book will tick with you for awhile. "

" chapter 3 depressed me ! "

" I was very much into the book until the last hundred pages or so. I thoroughly enjoyed Dante's trip through Purgatory. I got a tad bit bored right around Canto 21 when the subject matter (even though with different people/characters) was the same in successive Cantos. Reading the various forms of punishment was fun. At times however, I wished Virgil would whisk Dante and hurry up and get through Purgatory. A very interesting situation in Canto 24 when the reader must decipher between Dante the traveler and Dante the author. "

" I guess if you have a good knowledge of the backbiting and rivalry in the court of Florence in the 14th century it might be for you. For me, I thought it was a bit tedious and not worth reading beyond Wikipedia, for we must be missing out a bit on the epic poem in translation. "

" I thought that this was going to be yet another really boring book that I was assigned to read for its historical and literary value.... but not quite. I listened to it on audiobook and the reader really brought it to life! I actually enjoyed listening to the poem! "

" Good read if you can persevere through the language "

" Another high school book - incredibly difficult to get through but I loved the imagery. I was always amazed at how real everything felt. "

" Weirdly it's all downhill after The Inferno. But that part is hi-LAR-ious. "

" Honestly, this book is one of my favorite classics. I'M WEIRD "

" I didn't get it. I'm not Catholic. "

" A little slow at the city of Dis, but levels seven, eight and nine are just too good. "

" ... and the worst sin of all? ... the sin at the final level of Hell where Dis awaits ... treachery ... betraying those we claim to love ... and a treacherous heart frozen for eternity in ice can never know love or the joy of innocence ... "

" One of those that you just had to read during college. I read it again after because it was one that I wanted to read. "

" Illustrations are bitchin. Translation not so much. "

" Vivid descriptions of the immutable law of hell. Quite good. This is my first reading...look forward to reading it again in the future. "

" pierdan toda esperanza aquellos que entran.... Virgilio frente a las puertas del Infierno "

" The best part about reading this book is trying to figure out what circle of Hell you're going to. I'll see you in the sixth circle. "

" currently reading this book although the picture doesnt match my copy I got mine in leather bound from barnes & noble "

" This is an interesting book as it outlines what people back then though of hell and what specifically it entailed. While this is an interesting book I would not really suggest it to another student due to the fact of the difficulty involved in reading the book "

" It's a lot of work to read this, but worth it. "

" A lot of people die and go to Hell. "
