Reading Notes: Dante's Inferno, Part B

The Suicides
I just relly want to describe this scene in vivid detail.
  • stunted trees
  • warped branches
  • desolate landscape
  • bleeding when plucked and able to scream only when injured
bring in Dantes utter desolation-Mabey a thought about how that could have been him all too easily-tragically beautiful, or horrendous awe-inspiring?
include quotes from cutters lullaby?
I want to write it so there is sympathy, not condemnation- make it clear why it is a sin though and not an excusable (relatable but refusal-message of hope?)

Ninth Circle

would be fascinating to describe this
  • bitter cold
  • walking through a field of heads sprouting from a lake of ice
  • seeing the contorted bodies-frostbitten?
  • eerie stillness and oppressive feeling
  • seeing the bodies frozen beneath the ice
  • and of corse seeing lucifer
  • highlight tragic figure of the fall or inhuman beast??
