I had a dream the other night. I was directed by Virgil to walk through a shallow cave and descend dimly lit stairs. I asked him why he was sending me rather than walking at my side. He motioned for me to turn back and Walk the direction of the stairs. I walked up to hin in anger and tried striking him. My hook passed through what was once his head but now was a puff of gray smoke. Really fucked up my week.

If it's only the Inferno then I don't even want to participate. There's no beauty. There's no redemption. It's just depravity and I don't need to be walked through the circles of hell to see that which I can see every day just by walking outside.

Marshall McLuhan.
Lucifer would be pontificating, and then McLuhan would wander out from being an icy stalagmite:

"I hear-I heard what you were saying.
You-you know nothing of the 9th circle of Hell. You
mean my whole fallacy is wrong. How you
ever got to sit in the third ring of Judeccaa is
totally amazing."

Henry James is a great choice for style, but an odd choice for a guide. I love him, but I can’t imagine him guiding me through hell or purgatory, that sort of religious stuff is mostly too vulgar for him. He also wouldn’t particularly fit well Virgil’s allegorical role as human reason. My choice would be Thomas Mann.
