Product Description

From AudioFile

The last 33 cantos, PARADISE, are a peaceful completion of the journey, perhaps too peaceful. Heathcote Williams is solemn, his voice serious and low, as Dante and Beatrice ascend to The Empyrean. The beauty of PARADISE is subdued by Williams's quiet reverence. While a reading of THE DIVINE COMEDY is a welcome listening experience, the lack of energy on the last CDs are unequal to the soaring joy of Alighieri's vision of heaven.

Product Description

Originally released on 3 CDs in abridged form. Now available on 4 CDs unabridged. "I have been in the Heaven that takes up most of his light, and saw things there that those who descend from that height cannot speak of or forget..." Led by his guide Beatrice, Dante leaves the Earth behind and soars through the heavenly spheres of Paradise. In this third and final part of The Divine Comedy, he encounters the just rulers and holy saints of the Church. The horrors of Inferno and the trials of Purgatory are left far behind. Ultimately, in Paradise, Dante is granted a vision of God's Heavenly court - the angels, the Blessed Virgin and God Himself. With music of the period.
