The Canterbury Tales - Love and Marriage
by Reiner Prochaska from Geoffrey Chaucer

This adaptation of Chaucer's Canterbury Tales explores the bawdy humor of "The Miller's Tale," "The Merchant's Tale," "The Nun's Priest's Tale," and "The Wife of Bath's Prologue."

Prochaska infuses "The Franklin's Tale" with a hefty dose of comedy as the characters navigate their way through a rocky coastline and an awkward love triangle.

Faithful to the original, this text is accessible to a young twenty-first-century audience for whom it may be an introduction to Chaucer's wise and gentle satire on love, marriage, and sex.
