Sheila Fisher's 'The Selected Canterbury Tales' is a vivid, lively and readable translation of the most famous work of England's premier medieval poet.
Preserving Chaucer's Rhyme and meter, Fisher makes these tales accessible to a contemporary ear while inviting readers to the Middle English original on facing pages. Her informative introduction highlights Chaucer's artistic originality in his memorable portrayals of surprisingly modern men and women from across the spectrum of medieval society.
