Description
Prescott introduces HF to the general reader as simple to read, yet full of Chaucer's mischievous fun. In HF, Chaucer reveals the way fame was viewed by his contemporaries, plus the way he thinks they and we should see it. He gives readers much to laugh about as he travels through the universe poking fun at pomposity and disclosing unfairness in the world of celebrity.
