About this book

?? "The life so short, the craft so long to learn." ?? Geoffrey Chaucer's The Canterbury Tales is one of the greatest works in English literature—a vibrant, witty, and deeply human collection of stories that paint an unforgettable portrait of medieval life, morality, and imagination. Written in the late 14th century, the work follows a group of pilgrims traveling to Canterbury Cathedral, each telling a tale to entertain the others along the way. From the bawdy humor of The Miller's Tale to the profound wisdom of The Parson's Tale, Chaucer's storytellers—knights, merchants, clerks, and peasants alike—reveal the full spectrum of human nature: love and greed, virtue and vice, wit and folly. Blending satire, romance, adventure, and moral reflection, The Canterbury Tales captures both the laughter and the lessons of life, written in language that brims with color and vitality. Chaucer's keen eye for character and his groundbreaking use of the vernacular English helped shape the very foundation of modern literature. A celebration of storytelling, humanity, and timeless truth, this masterpiece invites readers to see themselves in the faces of pilgrims from centuries past. ?
