December holidays mean long drives for me, so I was pleased to be able to queue up Sheila Fisher’s double-header for the Norton Library’s podcasts: Tales and Tellers and A Long and Winding Road to Nowhere.

Many who teach Chaucer’s Canterbury Tales in translation (whether their students are Anglophones or not), find Sheila’s translation an excellent entry-point into the Tales. These introductory podcasts can provide a lively adjunct to classroom lectures or assigned reading.

Happy listening!
