1.0 out of 5 stars NOT Chaucer's Original, June 24, 2008

Kevin (NJ) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Canterbury Tales: Side by Side (Paperback)

Despite the description on the cover, this volume does not contain Chaucer's original; instead it provides a very poor verse translation into Modern English, along with a prose synopsis. Don't be fooled; there are other parallel text versions that actually provide the Middle English original.
