I finished listening to Inferno by Dante Alighieri. I had been wanting to read Inferno for a long time, but I forgetting about it. Inferno is the first book of The Divine Comedy. There are three books. They are poems. Inferno was a little difficult to follow. I'm glad I got the pdf that came with the audiobook. By the way, on Goodreads a reviewer posted about a lego artist that did the nine levels of Hell in legos. The lego depictions are well made. Anyway, Inferno is about Dante goes to Hell with Virgil as a guide. There are nine levels of Hell of different sins in them. I did sorta liked it. Now I'm going to Purgatory. That is the second book of Dante's Divine Comedy.

I am Italian and we studied the Divina Commedia in school. The Divine Comedy is only 1 book divided into three canticas Inferno (Hell), Purgatorio (Purgatory), and Paradiso (Paradise) each consisting of 33 cantos. It's not an easy book. Inferno is the most interesting.
