One thing that surprised me about this group were the women that were included. My preconceived ideas about the Canterbury tales looked more like Robin Hood and his gang of men or the 40 Thieves from the Arabian Nights tales. Instead you see a group of book smart, rich, average Joes and Jans who are from all walks of life. Some older, some younger. Some fair and kind, some noble and some dastardly, wicked, or shallow. The common theme is their calling to undergo this pilgrimage to Canterbury. What kinds of twists and turns will this merry band encounter? And how will each of their personalities and abilities be used to either unite them or be their downfall? I see this journey more or less like The Hobbit instead.
p.s. Sydni
Yeah! It's super cool to see how such a disparate group of people can be so unified.
