I read this book for school.

I didn't feel strongly about the characters.

Wealthy Florentines tell stories to each other while others are dying of black death. At the time, I suppose it was revolutionary, funny and gripping. However, I find it incredibly boring. There were only a few stories I liked. The one I liked the most was the story about a „deaf“ peasant who came to a monastery and then had affairs with the nuns.)

Page 352, the best line in the book.

I strongly dislike this whole book and the end wasn't an exception.

No.
