	Inferno - Peter Weiss
		Inferno -- written in 1964, but put aside and only published more than twenty years after his death, in 2003 -- was the first part of this planned dramatic trilogy.
		This Inferno is, however, a very different one from the one of Dante's own work.
		Inferno is an interesting theatrical experiment, and it will be interesting to see how it will translate to the stage (the first production is scheduled for 2004/5).

	Penguin Reading Guides \| The Divine Comedy Volume I: Inferno \| Dante Alighieri
		If Inferno, rather than Purgatorio or Paradiso, retains the strongest grip on our collective imagination, the best explanation for this is probably the simplest—the sinners of literature tend to be far more memorable than the saints.
		The pilgrim may have overcome his feelings of pity for the sinners in Hell by the end of Inferno, but it would be hard to argue that he has completely overcome unrestrained emotion.
		In one of the great epic poems of Western literature, the destiny of Aeneas is to become the founder of Rome, but not before he has overcome war, the challenges of the gods, and his love for Dido.

	Crime Stories review
		The theme: a simple murder mystery which eventually grows with a few subplots and a number of odd twists, adding in a mix of intrigue, clues and exploration of the game’s universe, delicately peppered with a touch of ancient Mayan culture and a little “mysticism” thrown in for some flavoring.
		However, the music and scenery were curious enough (along with the occasional comedic situations which surfaced now and then) and I found myself being dragged along with the beat of things and actioned the various puzzles until I came to the end.
		But if you are a collector of all mystery adventure games and/or graphic novels, or have an interest in the artwork of Alfredo Castelli and would like to see his fantastic artwork brought into the realm of interactive media…and aren’t too picky when it comes to really strange vocal cadences…then by all means…enjoy.

		While Inferno has often been criticized for terrible acting, dialogue and an incoherent plot, this compelling film—which Argento calls his "purest and most sincere"—seems less concerned with traditional narrative trajectories than it does with the art of horror film-making.
		it is first and foremost the dark entity of the house, the one that partakes of subterranean forces."[5] In Inferno, Argento stages a meeting between the audience and "the dark entity of the house" through the visual vocabulary of a mise-en-scène that appears inspired by the lucid dreaming of surrealism.
		In Inferno, such exchanges are commonplace and they create an overwhelming sense of strangeness, much like one would have in trying to explain the meaning of a dream in full upon waking.

	THE DANTE CLUB Dante's Inferno
		This Modern Library paperback is set from the original 1867 Ticknor and Fields edition and includes Longfellow's two "Inferno" sonnets and all of Longfellow’s original “Notes and Illustrations” (selected excerpts and essays about Dante’s poem) from throughout the poet's lifetime, compiled by the editor for the first time as Longfellow intended them.
		Inferno, the portion of the poem dealing with hell, has consistently proven the most shocking and widest read part of The Divine Comedy.
		He was assisted in his task by the group of prominent poets who rallied around him and christened themselves the "Dante Club." Longfellow’s much-anticipated translation made Dante’s visionary poem of traveling through the afterlife accessible to an American reading public for the very first time.

		This time, he deals with murder on the planet Inferno, a theoretical milieu of the Earth Settlers and the Spacers from the independent colonies, which he drew from Asimov's robot novels and expanded upon in Caliban.
		This novel involves a good theoretical puzzle that will keep readers turning pages but still emerges as mostly a homage to the departed sf master.
		The basic idea of Inferno (Just like it's predecessor, Caliban) is the creation of two new kinds of robots: The New Law robots and the No Law robot, and their effect on the society of the planet Inferno.

	Salon Books \| "From Hell" (Site not responding. Last check: )
		When DC Comics published "Watchmen's" 12 issues in the mid-1980s, comics were viewed as the bottom of the pop culture barrel, no more than adolescent fantasies of brightly-costumed characters in never-ending, rock 'em-sock 'em fight scenes.
		But creating an encore to an instant classic is a tricky business, and Welles never equaled "Kane." After "Watchmen," the Moore's most significant graphic novel is "From Hell," an epic autopsy of the Jack the Ripper slayings, serialized through the 1990s and now finally being published in book form by Eddie Campbell Comics.
		As ambitious and affecting as anything ever rendered in pictures and word balloons, "From Hell" combines an intricate mystery, insightful social criticism and unflinching brutality capable of unnerving the most desensitized pop audience.

		The characters in the novel are driven by a passion in literature, and so if the novel itself helps foster that passion in someone else, that's an added bonus.

		In The Music of the Inferno, distinguished critic and literature professor Frank Lentricchia seeks to join the ranks of Barth and (especially) DeLillo, and for the most part he succeeds.
		Beginning with the title, Lentricchia’s novel is densely allusive, and even the most sophisticated readers might wonder how much they are or are not getting.
		This novel is so self-conscious and self-reflexive that it is a relief when Lentricchia gives us a good dose of murder-mystery intrigue, or indulges in luxurious descriptions of food, or creates colorful characters to counteract his ultraliterary style.

	THE MYSTERY READER reviews: Dantes’ Inferno by Sarah Lovett
		Beyond that, is a tale which traces a novel written by John Freeman Dantes called Dantes’ Inferno, which parallels the literary classic written by the Italian poet Dante Alighieri, entitled the Inferno, the most famous book of his three part Commedia.
		Dantes’ Inferno (by John Dantes) is essentially the story of Dantes’ love for the city of Los Angeles, and his despair at what the present powers that be wish to do with it.
