Bewertet: Buch (Taschenbuch)

Anticipating Katabasis since the publishing was announced, I was intriguied to explore all the mentioned references, such as Dante's Inferno and Virgil's Aeneid and even more. However, I never actually managed to read said classics and nevertheless, I had a fantastic and fun read. Therefore, in order to grasp the information Kuang offers, one does not necessarily need to engage with all the afore mentioned classics. All the accumulated information that Kuang shares while her protagonists travel through hell is what provides the book with a unique reading experience. Witnessing hell through Alices's and Peters eyes is what helps to understand their motivations, thoughts and burdens, which also represents how hell itself mirrors both of them. Overall, Katabasis highlights not only what academics face normally, but also how science shapes our world. Therefore, it is the perfect junction between Fantasy and Philosophy.
