About Divine Comedy:

"An impressive, even magnificent work of late youth."
—Cortland Review

"A grand gesture.... It is a book about the struggle to keep a tenable foothold in a landscape that is continuously being compromised, both physically and spiritually.... A major work by one of our most politically engaged poets."
—Kenyon Review

"Kinsella's book emerges as the embodiment of a struggle to exist on a day-to-day basis, nestled in purgatory along with hell, our minds fixed on paradise.... Entrenched in land, it wavers between skies and depths; while not an ascent, it is certainly not still. It is more of a fraught trembling: a poets response to string theory."
