Eine kleine Dante
After recommendation from Dr. Watson and stumbling upon a copy at Sam's Club, I have begun reading Matthew Pearl's The Dante Club. So far, I find it uneven but diverting. Prominent historical characters are difficult to fictionalize properly, and this book feels far too self-conscious in other ways as well, but it has its moments.
More importantly, it reminded me that I still hadn't finished the Purgatorio (Ciardi's translation). I kept giving myself deadlines for finishing it last semester, and I missed all of them by a wide margin. I started back in on it, and I finished the last canto yesterday. Now I guess I can start on the Paradiso. I've been looking forward to that for a long time.

I'm sure. For my part, I can't get The Education of Henry Adams out of my head.
You know, I really have no idea why I settled on that title for this post. It's startlingly incongruous.

I agree Dante Club does have its moments. I read it while doing research in Boston and living just off the Common, which definitely added to the experience.
