The Canterbury Tales by Geoffrey Chaucer

from Classic Books in 30 Minutes: Western and World Literature for Busy People · host Adam Diament

In merry old England, a motley band of pilgrims—knights, nuns, millers, and rogues—sets off for Canterbury, each spinning tales to pass the dusty miles. From bawdy jests to noble quests, their stories weave a vibrant tapestry of love, greed, faith, and betrayal. Who will win the storytelling crown, and what secrets will their words reveal? Saddle up for Chaucer's The Canterbury Tales, a rollicking, timeless romp through the heart of medieval life!
