First paperback publication of Peter Ackroyd's incredibly well-received retelling

About the Author

Geoffrey Chaucer (c.1343-1400) was an English author, poet, philosopher, courtier and diplomat. Chaucer is credited by some scholars as being the first author to demonstrate the artistic legitimacy of the vernacular English language, rather than French or Latin.

Peter Ackroyd is a well known writer and historian. He has been the literary editor of The Spectator and chief book reviewer for the The Times, as well as writing several highly acclaimed books including a biography of Dickens and London- The Biography. He resides in London and his most recent highly acclaimed work is Thames- Sacred River.

Reviews

Ackroyd's 'retelling' is compulsive, bold and rare and will surely become a vital crib for generations of students to come.
