The Canterbury Tales


The Canterbury Tales
by Geoffery Chaucer

Description:
With their astonishing diversity of tone and subject matter, The Canterbury Tales have become one of the touchstones of medieval literature.

Translated here into modern English, these tales of a motley crowd of pilgrims drawn from all walks of life-from knight to nun, miller to monk-reveal a picture of English life in the fourteenth century that is as robust as it is representative.

The August/September book... I have heard mixed things about this book. Having already checked the book out of the library I thought what the heck.. Lets see how it goes. Good luck! And good reading!
