Like his ground-breaking "Inferno" (Hackett, 2009) and "Purgatorio" (Hackett, 2016), Stanley Lombardo's "Paradiso" features a close yet dynamic verse translation, innovative verse paragraphing for reader-friendliness, and a facing-page Italian text. It also offers an extraordinarily helpful set of notes and headnotes as well as Introduction -- all designed for first-time readers of the canticle -- by Alison Cornish.
