Book Description: 
A sequel to Dante’s Inferno (Carcanet, 2014), where Dante was relocated to the University of Essex, here the action shifts from Dante’s island of Purgatory to Mersea Island in Essex. This is a reinvention of Dante’s Purgatorio in the spirit of Joyce’s Ulysses, where Dante’s cast is replaced with our contemporaries, from Allen Ginsberg and Samuel Beckett to Putin and Boris Johnson.
