I Read John Milton’s Paradise Lost: Here’s What I Learned (Book Review)

The focus is or rather should be on Satan, the presumed hero of the story. Satan is absurd, persuasive, and devious, to say the least.

However, it is the combination of these Satanic qualities that makes him one of the best characters in such an intense and provocative literary fiction. There is so much more to understand and read about, that also evokes the labyrinthine and bizarre world of Paradise Lost.
