Chaucer's Works, Volume 4 — The Canterbury Tales by Geoffrey Chaucer

"Chaucer's Works, Volume 4 — The Canterbury Tales" by Geoffrey Chaucer is a collection of stories written chiefly from 1387 to 1400. A group of pilgrims embarks on a journey to Canterbury, each intending to tell two tales on the way there and two returning. Chaucer completed fewer than a quarter of these projected tales before his death. The stories' intended order remains uncertain, with various manuscripts presenting different arrangements of this unfinished medieval masterpiece. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
