New Canterbury Tales by Maurice Hewlett is a collection of short stories that follows the tradition of Geoffrey Chaucer's famous work, The Canterbury Tales. The book features a group of pilgrims who are traveling to Canterbury, England, and each of them tells a story during their journey. The tales are diverse and cover a range of genres, including romance, comedy, tragedy, and satire. The stories are set in different periods and places, from medieval England to ancient Greece, and they explore various themes such as love, friendship, power, and morality. The characters are vividly portrayed, and the language is rich and poetic. Hewlett's writing style is a blend of old and new, combining the medieval spirit of Chaucer with a modern sensibility. The book is a tribute to Chaucer's legacy and a celebration of storytelling as an art form. It is an engaging and entertaining read that will appeal to anyone who loves literature, history, and culture.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
