| book description |

When Michael Palmaâ€™s translation of the Inferno appeared in 2002, it defied the conventional wisdom of literary commentators who had long argued that Danteâ€™s intricate terza rima form simply could not be rendered in â€œrhyme-poorâ€ English. But Palmaâ€™s achievement in rhyming tercets was quickly received as a spectacular feat of poetic artistry. Now, more than two decades later, Palma has applied the same virtuosic attention to the form and flow of the Purgatorio and Paradiso, attending to both the tiniest details and the grand design of the entire Commedia and offering a fluid and readable English version that reveals to contemporary readers the sound, sense and awe-inspiring beauty of Italian literatureâ€™s greatest poem.
