Fiction by Karen Brooks
If you studied Geoffrey Chaucer in school, you have heard of the Wife of Bath, a character in his 14th century work The Canterbury Tales. This is an imaginative telling of that woman’s life, fleshing out the details from the small amount of information Chaucer gives us in his story.
It’s an interesting book that helps you see history as it affected real people. It’s not quite as vivid as a Philippa Gregory novel, but still pretty good.
