Here Chaucer’s world of competing voices is fully realized – a world at once violent and humorous, idealistic and corrupt, intensely religious and yet plagued by doubt.

The fictional frame for this surprisingly modern approach to storytelling is an old and time-honoured activity: the pilgrimage.

The tales, some of which are originals and others not, are contained inside a frame tale and told by a group of pilgrims on their way from Southwark to Canterbury to visit the shrine of Saint Thomas Becket at Canterbury Cathedral.

The themes of the tales vary, and include topics such as courtly love, treachery, and avarice.
