Paradise Lost




My room mate claims to suffer from insomnia. For that reason he spends most of the night reading up some interesting novels. So to catch up on my reading I picked up Miltons Paradise Lost. For the uninitiated Milton wrote Paradise Lost in 1667 and was a considerably controversial poet despised for "his asnine bigotry, his beastly hebraism, the coarseness of his mentality."

Paradise Lost is Milton justifying the way of God to men a so called masterpiece and one of the most controversial poems ever written.

Sounds interesting, huh?
Lemme find out...
