His Paradise Lost is a touchstone of English literature.In the latest entry in Ig's celebrated Bookmarked series, author Ed Simon considers Paradise Lost within the scope of his own alcoholism and recovery, the collapse of higher education, the imbecility ofthe canon wars, the piquant joys of labyrinthine sentences, and the exquisiteattractions of Lucifer. Milton is easy to respect and easier to fear, but withthe guidance of Simon, Milton becomes easiest of all to love. Paradise Lost mayhave generated thousands of works of criticism over the centuries, but none ofthem are like this.
