Review # 1 was written on 2013-03-04 00:00:00 Christine Lewis Wow - not at all what I was expecting. Funny, vulgar, and morally disturbing... all undoubtedly Chaucer's aim. Marvelously framed by the crass words of a drunk, which you then have to step back and reframe thru the reporter's words. This is story-telling at its absolute best, folks. Full disclosure: I listened to 3 modern poetic translations to bypass Chaucer's Middle English :) .
