The Divine Comedy, in Cary's complete translation, is Dante Alighieri's epic poem in three parts: Hell, Purgatory, and Paradise. It follows the poet's allegorical journey through the afterlife, guided by Virgil and Beatrice, exploring sin, repentance, and divine love. It is worth listening for its vivid medieval imagination and enduring spiritual vision.
