Description

Preserving Chaucer's rhyme and meter, Sheila Fisher's vivid, lively, and readable translation makes the poetic artistry of?The Canterbury Tales?accessible to a contemporary ear and invites readers, even those who have read the work before in Middle English, to a new appreciation of its delightful stories and unforgettable, surprisingly modern characters.
