"I keep to a strict diet of ill-advised enthusiasm and heartfelt regret." Leigh Bardugo

No WAIT!

I bought three beautiful books by Sandow Birk channelling Doré in a great modern derivation of Dante.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Adam is a straight up hottie. Just beautiful. I need to find pictures.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

That Scottish story is so much more interesting as fiction than as truth.

Adam who?

Hey Burrell! how are you?! The room my Dante class is in doesn't have wireless, which is for the best because I should actually pay attention to what he's saying since reading Dante is like beating myself around the head with a board with nails protruding from it.

In grad school, Dante always came up, at least in certain classes. I mean, he wasn't the hoor that Melville was but still, came up way more than he should.

My problem is that my class is on Dante, so there is no escaping him. It could be worse. It could be Philosophy of Death.

This sounds like one of the punishments in Dante's Inferno, actually. Reserved for someone who needed an eternal cluesticking.
