Paradise Lost - John Milton

There is this book i am reading in AP Lit, and it is called Paradise Lost by John Milton. This guy lived in the 1600s, so the book is old style english and can be considered hard to read. This is an epic poem with the heros and all that jazz. What i have read in the book so far is the war in heaven, and casting out Satan and the third of the population of heaven. he basically started in the middle of the story and i think he is going to go back and explain the rest of the book. It is a little hard to explain in such a short paragraph. we will continue to read it. but i thought it was interesting that this guy who lived in the 1600s was so frusterated with all the church organizations and how corrupt they were at this time, that he wrote the book which is similar to our beliefs!
