Linden Hills is a novel written by Gloria Naylor, originally published in 1985.[1] Naylor bases her allegory on Dante's Inferno.[2] The narrative is written from a third-person omniscient perspective, detailing different characters based on different traits that correspond with the different rings of Dante's interpretation of Hell. The novel is a revision of Naylor's Yale master’s thesis.[3]
