A review by christar_123
The Decameron by Giovanni Boccaccio

3.0

Some stories were definitely better than others. Lots of very funny and very strange vignettes. I must admit I kind of breezed over the parts where Boccaccio was describing the meals and songs and dances that the characters were involved with....wasn't that interested and these parts felt a lot more dated and medieval. The short stories themselves were often fascinating for both the content and the picture they give of life during the time.
