The Canterbury Tales

A pilgrimage, a contest, and a tapestry of tales that shaped English literature.

The Canterbury Tales (late 14th century), by Geoffrey Chaucer, is a cornerstone of English literature and one of the most enduring works ever written.

The book frames its stories around a group of pilgrims traveling to the shrine of Saint Thomas Becket in Canterbury. To pass the time, they agree to tell tales—comic, tragic, romantic, and moral—that reveal the breadth of human experience. From knights and scholars to millers and wives, Chaucer's characters bring medieval society to vivid, unforgettable life.

With wit, satire, and deep insight into human nature, Chaucer's masterpiece is at once entertaining and profound. It captures timeless themes of love, greed, faith, and folly, while also preserving the rhythm and beauty of Middle English storytelling.

Celebrated for centuries, The Canterbury Tales remains a joyous, thought-provoking journey into the heart of humanity.
