Royal Shakespeare Company The Canterbury Tales, (Paperback)

Two-part adaptation of Geoffrey Chaucer's tales by Tony award winner adaptor Mike Poulton. All the famous characters are here as well as many less well-known but equally full of life. Each of the stories has its own style--heroic verse for the Knight's Tale, vernacular rhymes for the Miller's Tale etc.--echoing the many narrative voices employed by Chaucer himself.
