    great Canterbury Tales has lasted for 600 years.

    It is one of the great literary works ever written. Geoffrey Chaucer is the "Father of English Poetry". The Neville Coghill translation is the very best!

    Very small print

    Print is too small for me to read. I was interested in this book, because I had to read portions in college.
