I liked it but I need to give it another go after some more background reading!
Dante def takes some liberties and determining who is good or bad but I found it to almost be a political commentary of his thoughts at the time. I read quite a bit of this as political commentary rather than a discussion of a hell. Was pretty cool, enjoyed this translation. Not the biggest fan of poetry but this one wa pretty cool to get through.

i’m gonna write a book about hell and just throw all my enemies in there for fun
Dante: And what have you done, to deserve such punishment, oh wretched soul
Guy who stepped on Dante’s foot as a child: Oh, my master, such sins have I commited, such should not be permitted to be entered upon these sacred pages. It is I count/duke of unknown italian family, please, I beg thee, remember me for as long as you live.
Virgil: ok nerd, let’s move on
Dante: Of course master, you, who in his glory, has seen all that is to be seen, your wisdom guides through these dark times and uplifts my spirit, like none other can.
This is basically the whole book, repeated 34 times.
