Barb asked Sylvain Reynard:

Dear M. Reynard, which is your favourite or recommended contemporary English translation of Dante Alighieri’s "Divine comedy”? Reading Gabriel’s Inferno I became really interested in this work, but there are many translations. I really enjoyed Gabriel’s Inferno and just now started in Gabriel’s Rapture. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and passion, Barbara

Sylvain Reynard Hello Barb,
I've always preferred Dorothy L. Sayers but Mark Musa's translation is also good. All the best and thanks for reading, SR

Hi, Favorite Author of Mine! You have motivated me to delve into other literature, not of the romantic genre.I have just started reading The Divine Comedy and find it so dense and full of incredible messages that it is almost too much.That is not a complaint, but rather a question to you: how do you propose that one tackles this august work in order to get the most out of it? i want to get closer to Gabriel.Thanks,SR
