This book had some interesting political satire, but I'm not sure how much of this students will pick up on. My 10th grade son brought this book to my attention; he liked that he was able to "read" Dante's Inferno. He was aware that he was reading a modern translation, thankfully, since the book mentions George W. Bush. As an average high school sophomore, he thought the book was good and it held his interest, which is saying a lot coming from him. ( ) aucune critique | ajouter une critique

A faithful yet totally original contemporary spin on a classic,Dante's Inferno as interpreted by acclaimed artist Sandow Birk and writer Marcus Sanders is a journey through a Hell that bears an eerie semblance to our own world. Birk, hailed by theLos Angeles Times as one of "realism's edgier, more visionary painters," offers extraordinarily nuanced and vivid illustrations inspired by Gustave Dore's famous engravings. This modern interpretation depicts an infernal landscape infested with mini-malls, fast food restaurants, ATMs, and other urban fixtures, and a text that cleverly incorporates urban slang and references to modern events and people (as Dante did in his own time). Previously published in a deluxe, fine-press edition to wide praise, and accompanied by national exhibitions, this striking paperback edition ofDante's Inferno is a genuinely provocative and insightful adaptation for a new generation of readers.
