Paradise Lost: The Novel
Description:
John Milton's monumental epic of warring angels, Satan, Heaven, Hell, and the ultimate tragic love story of Adam and Eve.
"Lanzara paraphrases the original text very closely; this novel version seeks to overcome the anxieties of those intimidated by [the poem's] complex language."
- The English Association, The University of Leicester
"An ambitious and intriguing undertaking."
- Society for Values in Higher Education
"Readers will immediately be impressed with Lanzara's flowing style, his clarity of language, and his simplicity in expression."
- Dr. Richard L. Summer, Cedarville College
"Lanzara has smoothed the convoluted epic lines into twentieth century prose....Despite the new genre, Lanzara's book is anything but vanilla narrative. His writing has an invisible poetic quality, an elevation of language that honors the original."
