Reseña:  At the Tabard Inn in Southwark a jovial group of pilgrims assembles including an unscrupulous Pardoner a noble-minded Knight a ribald Miller the lusty Wife of Bath and Chaucer himself. As they set out on their journey towards the shrine of Thomas a Becket in Canterbury each character agrees to tell a tale. The twenty-four tales that follow are by turns learned fantastic pious melancholy and lewd and together offer an unrivalled glimpse into the mind and spirit of medieval England.
