The abrupt ending of an intense love-affair has left Morris haunted
by memories of the dark beauty of his lost love. He believes that
escape from this torment will only be found in the arms of a
fair-haired woman. On a walking holiday along the Santiago de
Compostela pilgrim route, he sets his sights on the blond Diana,
convinced she will free him from the spell of his past love. He,
and holiday friend Jerry, waggishly assign names of The Canterbury
Tales pilgrims to their fellow walkers. Constance, holidaying
alone, is doing a similar thing. Diana, and her friend Helen, learn
of their secretive labelling, and the five agree to tell their own
personal tales. Hidden aspects of the narrators' lives, beyond
anything expected from comparative strangers, are exposed in these
intriguing stories. Morris persists in his pursuit of the
tantalising Diana, a golden goddess in whose bed he believes lies
exorcism of the spectre of his former love. Who is sleeping with
who? And what new pairings are being made? These are the questions
in the air as the contemporary evocations of Chaucer's pilgrims;
the Wife of Bath, Miller, Monk, Manciple, Prioress, Physician,
Knight and Man of Law, intertwine along the holy pathway.
