By Fr Paul Pearson,
Tan Books, 372pp, £20/$25
In the 700 years since the publication of Dante Alighieri’s three-volume Divine Comedy, there has been a vast array of books, plays and films (and even a theme park) dedicated to its retelling. Against this backdrop, an authentic and original view of one of the great works of the Renaissance is difficult to come by. However, in the first instalment of an expected trilogy on the spiritual lessons of the Divine Comedy, the Oratorian Fr Paul Pearson has provided just that.
