Former U. S. Poet Laureate Pinsky employs slant rhyme and near rhyme to preserve Dante's terza rima form without distorting the flow of English idiom. The result is a clear and vigorous translation that is also unique student - friendly and faithful to the original: " A brilliant success " as Bernard Knox wrote in The New York Review of Books.
