The Decameron

Fairly libidinous text - but a good translation of this 14 th century book - well worth a read. A variable feast when it comes to narration by multi providers - the good, the bad and the ugly - last four episodes are a case in point: sections 10/10 and 10/9 are well read and merit 5 stars; section 10/8 where English is not her first language has more mispronounced vowels than those correctly delivered 2.5 stars; and 10/7 a pedantic, over dramatised reading read at tortoise pace - a single star is generous. The whole work of 100 tales is split equally between good and poor readings. Despitethe poor readings, I like it.
