Paradise Lost

Description : The best story I've read in a long time. Although I disagree with alot of the details and implications, it is an excellent story and isn't completely boring like the Divine Comedy. This is the story about the Fall of Humanity from the Garden of Eden and the war in Heaven. If possible, try to obtain the copy with John Martin's illustrations.

Those of you who feel a little alienated by the ‘fluffy bunny’ type of Wicca will truly enjoy reading this introductory guide to Nocturnal magick. The second book 'Gothic Grimoire' offers a deeper explanation into this facinating topic. This is one of the best books published by Konstantinos.

The Inferno, the John Ciardi translation
Category : Classics
Author : Dante Alighieri
ISBN (No Dashes) : 0451527984
|
|
Description : This is the best translation of the Inferno I have come across. Though the beautiful poetic structure of the writing is lost in the translation to English, Ciardi does not shame one word of it. Incase you have lived in a box, the Inferno is the first book of "The Divine Comedy". Little Goth boy, Dante, goes to Hell with his favorite poet of the antiquity, Virgil. The whole book is vividly entertaining, going from the sad and the pathetic, to the horrible yet hilarious. Another book everyone must read by default of existing.
