    For sake of political correctness‚ I do not believe anyone could rewrite Inferno and use celebrities in their book. Everyone is offended by everything nowadays‚ and a simple tweet can trigger a million people that have opposing opinions. Entire careers have been ruined because of an unpopular stance stated on social media‚ imagine an entire article with touchy subjects! By putting celebrities in different circles of hell‚ you’re practically damning them. Some will take offense while others would

    Reading Dante’s Inferno has been a challenge for me‚ especially at first when I didn’t understand some of the main themes Dante was trying to get across.
