The Inferno

The Inferno by Dante is an absolute classic. The first book of the Divine Comedy, Inferno is a journey through Hell. Dante is considered to be a master of Literature and I have to agree. It's really long and can get confusing so make sure you have time enough to read it. It's an epic poem so there is rhyme and meter and the awkward breaks. But it's an amazing how Dante had divided Hell into ten separate circles, each for their own level of sin. It's an intelligent book to pick up and read. I think that if you like reading, or poetry, or are just bored, this is a must read for you.
