Book synopsis

In the vein of "Brunelleschi's Dome, Galileo's Daughter, " and "Wittgenstein's Poker, Dante in Love" is a geographic and spiritual re-creation of the poet's travels and the burst of creativity that produced the greatest poem ever written."Dante in Love" is the story of the most famous journey in literature. Rubin follows Dante's path as the poet, exiled from Florence, walked the old Jubilee routes that linked monasteries and all roads to Rome and Tuscany -- a path followed by generations of seekers from T. S. Eliot, Sigmund Freud, and Primo Levi to Bruce Springsteen. Following Dante's route, we, too, are inspired to undertake the journey of discovering ourselves.
