Status Updates From The Selected Canterbury Tales

The wife of bath: love a woman in male felids. She’s iconic. No one’s done it like her ( maybe big Ang). That monk is annoying and should stfu.

Th millers tale: funny as shit. I feel that this is that Ruby Frankie shit just heterosexual. Also this confirms my belief that conservatives god fearing men’s wife’s are closeted and desperate for 5 min of non creepy affection;) where they feel(mentally and physically) seen.

The knight’s tale: I wanted Emily to not need to marry the violent rambunctious overgrown toddlers, but it’s a some boring man’s fantasy; so ofc she did. That being said love a man who’d rather sit in a tower as a prisoner, just so he can see you and hear your voice. bc to be away is ‘hell itself’, a silent lap dog that looks longingly. I like that.

Book is really picking up in the knight’s tale, it’s a courtly romance story which is surprisingly entertaining despite the book’s age. Overall it has been very readable altogether.

I see that I started reading this back in 2019 per Becky’s suggestion. Well here I am finally! I am quite enjoying this book, although it is slow going with all the notes and vocabulary helps. I’m also very much enjoying listening to it read in Middle English on archive.com.
