Reviews
Praise for Hell: "Alasdair Gray has cast a spell over Dante's Hell , creating (and decorating) a verse translation that is modern, lyrical, yet faithful to the original" New Statesman "Powerfully conveys the appalling nature of a vision which has terrified and enthralled Western men and women down the centuries" Times Literary Supplement "No other translator has made the narratives so clear or strong, and the distinctive power of the work lies in the clarity of the storytelling . . . This Hell is a magnificent feat of reimagining of one of the greatest of all human creations" Herald "Slick, easy to read . . . Gray is rather good at catching the colloquial nature of the poem . . . An excellent primer to Dante . . . In terms of verve, vim and vigor Gray has succeeded here. It is, if such a thing can be, an 'easy' Dante, and one that does capture the comedy as well as the pathos and anguish of the poem" Scotsman, PRAISE FOR HELL: Alasdair Gray has cast a spell over Dante's Hell, creating (and decorating) a verse translation that is modern, lyrical, yet faithful to the original

However it was delivered in a plain white plastic envelope. They should have at least used a bubble pack lined shipping envelope for protection of the item inside. They should re-think their shipping & packaging strategies, especially with much much older delicate items. Other wise no problems whatsoever with seller. Recommended seller. A+
