Dante's Paradiso

Edición de la obra Dante's Paradiso

Publisher's description: Hailed by the San Francisco Chronicle as "a work of profound satiric fury" and by Bookpage as "funny and deeply affecting, " Birk and Sanders' innovative and authentic adaptation of Dante's epic, coupled with Birk's striking play on Gustave Dore's classic illustrations, make this a Divine Comedy for the 21st century. Acclaimed by both the literary and art worlds; rife with contemporary turns of phrase and slang (just as the original poem was written in the vernacular of its day) and pointed visions of the afterlife as contemporary cities; and rich with bold allusion, cultural critique, and wit.
