Coghill’s translation makes Chaucer accessible! Some tales shone brighter than others, but overall, a delightful read.
Tarun –
Chaucer’s wit shines through! Coghill did a great job. The footnotes were really helpful in understanding context.
Aman Kumawat –
A brilliant introduction to Chaucer. The language is updated, but some of the humor felt a bit lost in translation.
Shikhar Pratap –
Found this edition easy to understand. Some of the religious allegories were hard to follow. Worth a read, though.
Sahil Chahal –
An enjoyable journey through medieval England. Coghill’s verse is engaging, though purists may prefer the original.
Aryan Chouhan –
A mixed bag. Some stories captivated me, others bored me. A good introduction, but not perfect. Worth exploring if you enjoy poetry.

Really enjoyed reading it! The poems were very well written, even though i had to read it twice to fully understand it!
Tanisha Gupta –
Loved the diverse characters and stories! A few tales dragged, but the Wife of Bath’s was fantastic. A great classic!
