"This was one of the first poems I read that gave me the shock of recognition that great poets offer. “Withered stumps of time,” “I will show you fear in a handful of dust,” “these fragments I have shored against my ruins.” I even like the obscurity of parts of the poem that have unraveled throughout my life when reading other books and ancient myths. It’s a modern epic from ancient history."

Just like the previous two in this Divine Comedy, this epic poem was very insightful.

I have enjoyed being able to look back on the other two and see all of the connections between the three books. Seeing the difference between the poet and the pilgrim versions of Dante was pretty cool too!

You definitely have to make sure to read this one a lot slower because it is much more dense than the other two, so be warned.
