Вот что бывает, когда поэт влюбился, поговорив с девушкой два раза, а потом узнал, что она вышла замуж и умерла.
Всех моих любимцев Данте отправил в ад: и Ахилла с Патроклом, и Тиресия, и даже самого Одиссея (негодую вместе с Афиной!).

an extremely long, difficult, and soul devouring read, especially if you find yourself with a version that isn't annotated (bless your heart). i chipped away at The Divine Comedy for months and sometimes I had to re-read single phrases multiple times.
however, it is a worthwile read. if you can't finish the whole thing i would plead you to at least read the iconic Inferno section in its entirety.

A foundational work in western thought and for good reason. A beautiful story that explores meaningful Christian doctrine in a brilliant and intuitive allegory for becoming closer to God.

This is one of the books that make me wish I could read any language in existence. I moderately enjoyed reading it, but I know I would have understood it better in its native tongue, especially during the time in which Dante wrote it. I read it mostly to understand the cultural references seen in literature and art throughout the years.
It is very dense and it took me a very long time to read. I had to read a few Cantos at a time in order to not be bogged down. I would highly suggest taking time to read it and breaking it up over a period of time, rather than trying to read it all the way through in a short period of time.
If you don't read all of it, stick to Inferno. It is definitely the most interesting section and is the most referenced section as well.
