Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

Destined to become an instant cult object d'art, this limited-edition volume openly winks to readers of English—even as it renders Dante's classic in its original Italian. Quantum of Dante positions itself in a trivial and serious dialogue with the master's medieval masterpiece that will surprise and amuse.

A curio for the curious, a status symbol for the scholarly—and unforgettable for everyone. One might call it brilliant.

'The ant that Marco sees embedded in Dante's name and verse has opened up a world of ants and antipodean routes!' — Diego Marani

'What a fantastic place to find ants. This Dante book is incredibly pleasant!' — Marco Dorigo
