Dante's Divine Comedy - John H Boose - Bog

- Inferno, Re-Illustrated

Bag om Dante's Divine Comedy

Do you want to read a great classic illuminated with over 300 authentic illustrations? This is a piece of work that will keep you up nights in wondrous awe, reading and drinking. It is the "perfect mixture of theological bedevilment and 21st Century Dada." Here's what they're saying about Dante's Inferno - Re-Illustrated: "These illustrations look like I need a drink." - Rhoda Mule, Loose Change Quarterly. "There should be other ways to illustrate a theme and make an existential point without scaring the reader witless." - Sheila Takya, New Century Dada Press. "Inferno is a very bad story, having, in its self-righteous and virtuous sentimentality, much in common with Do Trousers Matter?" - Segovia Carpet, Dept. of Fine Arts, Florida University. "...substituting sanctimony for empathy and polemic for poetry, it sets a bad example for literary art." - Vito Powers, US Congress. "Its romanticized two-dimensional, cutout characters strut and fret their hour on an unconvincing stage." - Barb Dwyer, The Looney Bin Bungler. "Even the worst book has an end." - Mike Easter, The Jiffy John Digest. "So many pictures, so little art." - Emily Pest, The Hourly World News. "This is the best book I ever read." - Abraham Lincoln, The Paid Endorser. "The picutres seem devoid of human values and completely unrealistic." - Ira Gurgitate, The Pittsburgh Drifter. "So many pictures, so little art." - Amelia Barfup, The Hourly World News. "The Inferno Re-Illustrated made me physically ill, even more revolting than Boose's other illustrated classics." - Myra Mains. "It reminds me of Moose Murders." - Felix Cited. "What a great cure for insomnia!" - Freida People, The Trivial Messenger. "The Illustrations are great because it cannot but deeply entertain us with its earnest vigor, its invincible belief in its own genius, its merciless craft, its transcendent obliviousness."- Lucinda Head. "This Dada book is truly a modern surreal experience." - Salvador Doily. "It is a great bore, and, I need hardly say, a terrible disappointment to me, but the fact is I have just had a telegram to say that my poor friend Bunbury is very ill again." - Oscar Wilde, Being Earnest. "If Boose isn't America's leading classics illustrator, I can see why." - Isabelle Ringing, The Illiterary Journal. "Chee chee cheers for Upkingbilly and crow cru cramwells Downaboo! Hup, boys, and hat him!... my guesthouse and cowhaendel credits will immediately stand ohoh open as straight as that neighbouring monument's fabrication before the hygienic gllll." - James Joyce, Finnegan's Wake.
