Paradiso is the third and final part of Dante's Divine Comedy, following the Inferno and the Purgatorio. It is an allegory telling of Dante's journey through Heaven, guided by Beatrice, who symbolises theology. In the poem, Paradise is depicted as a series of concentric spheres surrounding the Earth, consisting of the Moon, Mercury, Venus, the Sun, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, the Fixed Stars, the Primum Mobile and finally, the Empyrean. It was written in the early 14th century. Allegorically, the poem represents the soul's ascent to God.

This is one of the greatest books I have ever read! Dorothy Sayers translation is incredible and she offers tremendous insight into past history and and provides much needed background to enjoy this timeless classic of the Western Canon. It is also easy to understand why Dante ranks high up in Western Canonical literature along with Virgil and Homer. What made the book enjoyable also was that, prior to purchase, I viewed online documentaries about Dante's Inferno which is what I would recommend but even then, you will not anticipate all of the actions of the book.

The Divine Comedy Part 3 Paradise Illustrated edition by Dante Alighieri Literature Fiction eBooks Reviews

The only reason I'm rating it so low is that I was sent The Canterbury Tales instead of the book I ordered. I didn't discover the error for a while because I had also ordered The Divine Comedy parts one and two also, and started right in studying part one while setting the other two parts aside for later study.
Disappointing.
Great book!
Wonderful translation and notes. Very understandable.
I had Inferno and Purgatory, so I needed to complete this epic trilogy and I am proud to own these classics.
This is clearly the best translation and commentary on the DC. Even though the last 13 books of Paradiso were completed after Sayer's death, the overall work holds up to a very high standard.
Dante deserves 5 stars and the translators 4, but the current edition deserves 1. It seems to have been sloppily OCRed with little editorial attention. Problems include,

1. Ugly formatting (compared to the paper book). The verse numbers intrude into the text, the useful page headings are gone (except where they've been accidentally and intrusively included), and the indentation is inconsistent. On most devices it is hard to get lines to not wrap, but in the paper book this is handled well.

2. Typos/errors. Especially in the italicized comments at the beginning of each chapter. Clumsy, no attention to detail.

3. No table of contents and no good way to navigate between text, notes, and glossary. There should be *more* hyperlinking opportunities in the electronic text. But instead it's clumsier to use than the actual book, which responds well to thumb and finger. Also on the Touch anyway it's impossible to look up a phrase, for example to google "mosaic of Justinian at San Vitale" which was mentioned in the notes.

I can't believe I paid $9.59 for such a barbarically edited book. Where are your standards, Penguin? It's distracting and disappointing.
