This startling new translation of Dante’s *Inferno* is by Ciaran Carson, one of contemporary Ireland’s most dazzlingly gifted poets. Written in a vigorous and inventive contemporary idiom, while also reproducing the intricate rhyme-scheme that is so essential to the beauty and power of Dante’s epic, Carson’s virtuosic rendering of the Inferno is that rare thing—a translation with the heft and force of a true English poem.
