lydiathetattooedlady 's review for:
Paradise Lost
by John Milton
Bought the book for a pound back in 1997 and, my oh my, there's a reason it's taken me seventeen years to get around to reading it. I've only persevered to the end because I'm off work/on the sick, I have plenty of time to fill, and I promised myself I'd finish the damn thing. It is fewer than 300 pages after all.
There's some fascinating (and seriously messed up) stuff: Satan's daughter/partner pregnant with his children/grandchildren?! What was Milton on?
Unsettling as that is, Satan and the other fallen angels are still by far the most interesting characters: Adam and Eve are dull beyond belief (I couldn't wait for them to bite the bloody fruit!), and god, Jesus and the angels aren't much better.
Glad I read it. But also glad it's over with.
