Everyone is wrong about Paradise Lost. The bits in Hell have their moments, but the later books are vile misogynistic claptrap. I can't decide whether
Milton chose his poetic style because he thought that being difficult to read would make people take him more seriously, or because he lacked the skill to scan whilst using readable English - probably both. (and no it's not the period, it's him).

Enjoy!
