Publisher's Synopsis

Michael Palma's translation of the Inferno reproduces in contemporary English Dante's intricate triple-rhyming terza rima form, defying the conventional wisdom of literary commentators who long argued that it simply cannot be done. This spectacular feat of poetic artistry- "accurate … admirably clear, and readable" (Richard Wilbur)-"in capturing the sense, sound, and spirit of the original … comes close to perfection" (X.J. Kennedy).
