## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Love It!!!
*by J***E on December 31, 2019*

I had been searching for a copy of Dante's Divine Comedy (in english) for years but only ever found it Italian. It came in a beautiful presentation, I was super excited when I first opened the box and removed the cover. Highly recommend

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The paper weight and texture is also great.
*by M***. on July 11, 2017*

The illustrations are incredible. In.cred.ible. Seriously.The paper weight and texture is also great.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ A solid introduction to The Divine Comedy with illustrations by Gustave Dore
*by S***N on February 1, 2016*

The Knickerbocker Classics version of The Divine Comedy is the translation of Henry Wadsworth Longfellow. Longfellow was the first U.S. translation of The Divine Comedy, and because of that it is a very accessible translation. It's not the best translation I have read in terms of beauty, but it is an easier read than others which I have attempted. The best part of this edition is the images of Gustave Doré. The illustrations of Doré are easily recognized and you will also find them in the works of John Milton. Like all books in the Knickerbocker Classics line, the pages are thinner than my liking, and that creates both word and image bleed-through. This is not a textbook edition, but more a bookshelf edition. Because of that, it is missing footnotes both for translation and literary references. Those are helpful and I'd argue essential for anyone reading through Dante the first time. There is a brief introduction on Dante, a section on "The Life and Times of Dante Alighieri," and some keys to studying the text at the end. However, for a thorough study, you'll want a more scholarly translation and perhaps a textual guide or commentary on it. Overall, this is a good book for an affordable price and you could walk away from it with a basic grasp and appreciation of The Divine Comedy. I recommend it for someone who has never read this great work or someone looking to re-introduce themselves to this work.
