The Canterbury Tales (A Bantam Dual-Language Book) by Geoffrey Chaucer

Lusty, wise, and richly human, “The Canterbury Tales” remains one of the towering achievements of English literature. Across this lively pilgrimage to Canterbury, Chaucer gives voice to knights and millers, merchants and nuns—each revealing the passions, follies, and desires that shape humanity. This Bantam Dual-Language Edition presents Chaucer’s tales in their original Middle English alongside a modern English translation, allowing readers to experience both the rhythm of the medieval tongue and the clarity of contemporary language. Irreverent, profound, and endlessly vivid, it captures life in all its color and contradiction.
