This startling new translation of Dante's" Inferno" is by Ciaran
Carson, one of contemporary Ireland's most dazzlingly gifted poets.
Written in a vigorous and inventive contemporary idiom, while also
reproducing the intricate rhyme-scheme that is so essential to the
beauty and power of Dante's epic, Carson's virtuosic rendering of
the Inferno is that rare thing--a translation with the heft and
force of a true English poem. Like Seamus Heaney's "Beowulf" and
Ted Hughes's "Tales from Ovid," Ciaran Carson's "Inferno" is an
extraordinary modern response to one of the great works of world
literature.
