really weird to admit but you know it's a good prose when it's poking fun at religion, is well-written smut, but also has an intention? like it's obviously pandering to the italian people, but also deeply connects with the dearest essence of what it's like to be a human being. and i for one, now understand why smut readers find smut, horny. and no i won't further elaborate.

pg35 of the intro, when it's like ard 100ish???? insane length for introduction of the work but i can already feel the passion through them. insightful of the time period and boccaccio's trials of writing, struggles against friends and the world he lived in, damned if i am to just wanna experience a smidget of whatever they had in naples.
