Ackroyd, Peter, 1949-2009
Book
In 'The Canterbury Tales', Chaucer created one of the great touchstones of English literature, a masterly collection of chivalric romances, moral allegories and low farce. Peter Ackroyd's fresh, modern retelling infuses 'The Canterbury Tales' with new and vigorous life.
