To relieve the tedium of the journey, the host of the inn proposes that each of the pilgrims tell a favorite story, promising that the best storyteller will be treated to a fi ne dinner on the groups return to Southwark.<br />So begins one of the earliest masterpieces of English literature, a collection of stories as much prized for the portraits of its story tellers as for the stories they tell portraits that reveal much of the rich social fabric of 14th-century England. Now three of the most popular tales along with the charming General Prologue have been selected for this edition: <em>The Knights Tale</em>, <em>The Millers Prologue and Tale</em>, and <em>The Wife of Baths Prologue and Tale</em>.<br />Animated by Chaucers sly humor, flair for characterization and wise humanity, the stories have been recast into modern verse that captures the lively spirit of the originals.
