Purgatorio

Book • 2021
In *Purgatorio*, Dante Alighieri continues his journey from *Inferno*, guided by the Roman poet Virgil.

The poem follows Dante as he ascends Mount Purgatory, a seven-terrace mountain where souls atone for the seven deadly sins.

Along the way, Dante encounters various historical and mythological figures, engaging in discussions about sin, love, and human development.

The journey culminates at the Garden of Eden, where Dante meets Beatrice, who will guide him through the next stage of his journey in *Paradiso*.

The poem explores themes of redemption, suffering, and the purification of the soul, all while reflecting on divine truth and human history.
