The general prologue to the Canterbury tales and the Canon's yeoman's prologue and tale. / Geoffrey Chaucer ; edited by A. V. C. Schmidt
Chaucer, Geoffrey, d. 1400
Lively, absorbing, often outrageously funny, Chaucer's 'The Canterbury Tales' is a work of genius, an undisputed classic that has held a special appeal for each generation of listeners. Twenty-nine of literature's most enduring (and endearing) characters in a vivid group portrait that captures the full spectrum of medieval society, from the exalted knight to the humble ploughman as they journey to the tomb of St Thomas a Becket at Canterbury Cathedral - container.
