Got through the Miller's Tale and then decided that my life is too busy to be reading lukewarm Middle English literature word for word with excruciating carefulness and note-checking and crossreferencing and shit. Maybe I'll return at a later date but I'm real sick of it already. Harder to read than Shakespeare but not nearly as good.

Clever, but difficult. The reader willing to focus will find the Tales rewarding.
