The Canterbury Tales: Denouncing Corruption and Hypocrisy

About this episode

This is a literary journey without borders. Each episode I explore a work, an author or a literary movement from different corners of the planet. Because books are also passports, and each story brings us closer to different cultures, languages and realities.

Today I'm talking about a magnificent work of English literature: The Canterbury Tales, written by Geoffrey Chaucer around 1386.
