‘Palma’s wonderfully readable translation comes close to perfection. I’m tempted to call it a miracle.’—X. J. Kennedy
Unlike every known translator before him, Michael Palma re-creates Dante’s masterpiece in all its dimensions, without emphasizing some aspects over others, renderingInferno into contemporary American English while maintaining Dante’s original triple rhyme scheme. The result is a translation that can be appreciated for its literal faithfulness and beautiful poetic form, accompanied by facing-page Italian and explanatory notes. ‘A superb translation; highly recommended.’—
Library Journal ‘I find Michael Palma’s
Inferno to be one that I’m having a hard time improving.’—Lawrence Ferlinghetti ‘I think highly of Michael Palma’s
Inferno….Readers will find it admirably clear and readable.’—Richard Wilbur
