macabresiren 's review for:

The Divine Comedy by Dante Alighieri
4.0

The Divine Comedy has been on my "to be read" list since I began keeping one. I can acknowledge it's beauty, but this is one of those things I feel I could re-read multiple times, and still find hundreds of things I missed. Something that, despite it's beauty, I imagine only gets more and more so each time one returns to it. I truly get why a person would read this one time and again.

Maybe some people read books like this to feel superior, but frankly, a work like this has quite the opposite effect on someone like me.
