David Wright's classic translation brings Chaucer's masterpiece of
Middle English storytelling into clear modern prose. "The
Canterbury Tales "has entertained readers for centuries, with its
comic animal fables, moral allegories, miniature epics of courtly
love, and rollicking erotic farces that bring fourteenth-century
England to life on every page. The gloriously varied stories,
narrated by a group of pilgrims on their way to Canterbury, are
peopled with saints, sinners, and ordinary mortals in a vivid
panorama of the medieval world. This prose translation renders
these tales as accessible and irresistible to modern readers as
they were to Chaucer's contemporaries.
