I just found these dusty books in my downstairs. I just begun reading Dante's inferno. I think it is one of the greatest pieces of literature I've ever read in my entire life. It's so brilliant.

Has anyone actually been able to finish any of his books?

About hell, heaven, and purgatory... I think at least. It's very hard to read, because you have to be so focused to understand it. I have A.D.D... So it makes for a wonderful experience...  :)

I'm reading Inferno. It is hard, I agree with you. I have ADD also, but it's such a great read, so interesting.

Inferno is the only one I bought.

I consider it one of my favorite books.

It's about this guy, Dante, I think we are to try not to think of him of a poet, and his journey through hell, purgatory, and paradise, to get to see his dead wife. That's all I remember. His guide is Virgil, from Aenid (spelling).
