“I don’t believe that the past is necessarily in the past. It is eternal, it is always around us,” says Peter Ackroyd. And he proves this to the whole world with his translation from Old English into modern language of one of the greatest poems by Geoffrey Chaucer (1343–1400). “The Canterbury Tales” is a mosaic of amazing stories: religious, everyday, romantic, told by medieval pilgrims on the way from London to Canterbury, people of different ages, social status and temperament, and the voice of each of them retains the brightness and freshness of the vernacular style. Chaucer’s works are most likely famous for their salty humor, and many of his plots are easily recognizable (remember, for example, “The Tale of Tsar Saltan”). And now we can enjoy Chaucer's Canterbury Tales, arranged by Peter Ackroyd.
