“Chaucer’s blend of humour, realism, philosophical depth, poetic virtuosity, and masterful control of dialogue and character was never matched…As a storyteller, he is supreme.”

Cambridge Guide to Literature in English


Geoffrey Chaucer’s greatest work paints a brilliant picture of medieval life, society, and values. The stories range from the romantic, courtly idealism of “The Knight’s Tale” to the joyous bawdiness of “The Miller’s Tale.” All are told with a freshness and vigour in this modern verse translation that make them a delight to hear.
