En av den engelska litteraturhistoriens verkliga klassiker har tidigare, för de av oss som inte är skolade i gammelengelska, varit svårtillgänglig, men nu kommer den i en återberättad version i en fin utgåva.
The Canterbury Tales is a major part of England's literary heritage. From the exuberant Wife of Bath's Arthurian legend to the Miller's worldly, ribald farce, these tales can be taken as a mirror of fourteenth-century London. Incorporating every style of medieval narrative - bawdy anecdote, allegorical fable and courtly romance - the tales encompass a blend of universal human themes. Ackroyd's retelling is a highly readable, prose version in modern English, using expletive and avoiding euphemism, making the Tales much more accessible to a new generation of readers.
