Download Troilus and Criseyde AudioBook Free

Set through the fierce Trojan Battle, Troilus and Criseyde is the poignant story of love won and lost. The stunning Criseyde becomes the object of desire for Troilus, the boy of King Priam, and he is able to win her devotion through the machinations of his uncle, Pandarus. They experience a short time of bliss along, but despite their vows of faithfulness, they are simply soon separated by the fortunes of conflict. Nevill Coghill's matchless translation skilfully transmits the genius and vigor of Chaucer's 14th-century intimate poem, widely regarded as his finest accomplishment. Listen as most likely the very best love poem of the center Age range comes alive, combining elements of humor and tragedy to form an exquisite story of intimate love and human being frailty.
