The Divine Comedy: Volume 2: Purgatory by Dante Alighieri

4.0

Do I believe that the places Dante visits in his Divine Comedy actually exist? Definitely not, but that doesn’t make it a really good story. It’s quite different than Inferno, less interesting in my mind but also a bit more philosophical. I don’t think I liked it more than Inferno but it was still good. The historical figures in this one were a bit less noteworthy, but the scene where he finally finds Beatrice is among the best in these two books. We’ll see how the last book is soon enough.
