Paradise (Paradiso) is the third canticle of Dante Alighieri's world-renowned narrative poem describing the poet's journey through the realms of the afterlife. Here Dante is guided by his beloved Beatrice through the nine celestial regions of Paradise, leading to the last, Empyrean Heaven, the dwelling place of God and the angels.

For all that, C.S. Lewis loved the Comedy for its seemingly effortless poetry.

Of course, there wouldn’t be much of a story to tell had it turned out that way.
