Status Updates From 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.

I’m getting there 😌😪

I'm not sure if I like Chaucer or not :(
