Story12
Chaucer’s The Canterbury Tales, a collection of narratives written between 1387 and 1400, tells of a group of 30 people from all layers of society who pass the time along their pilgrimage to Canterbury by telling stories to one another, their interaction mediated (at times) by the affable host - Chaucer himself. Naxos AudioBooks’ third volume presents the tales of six people, here in an unabridged modern verse translation (by Frank Ernest Hill, 1935).

Echoes of Love is a companion for those hardest days and quietest nights. It is a collection of 100 short reflections for the grieving heart: honest, raw, and quietly real. Each reflection offers a soft moment of recognition, something to hold onto when you're not sure what you feel or how to move through it. Some parts may comfort you. Others may bring tears. All were written to meet you where you are.

You may think you know Vergil’s epic poem, The Aeneid - the story of Aeneas, a Trojan hero, prophesized to found Rome. Or maybe you’ve heard of the fearsome Cyclopes, the tragic queen Dido, the Trojan horse, the River Styx and the three headed dog who guards the underworld. But what of the man who wrote it and why? This is that story.

The Kalevala is a 19th-century work of epic poetry compiled by Elias Lönnrot from Karelian and Finnish oral folklore and mythology. The Kalevala was instrumental in the development of the Finnish national identity and the sense of nationality that led to Finland's independence from Russia in 1917. Beginning with the traditional Finnish creation myth, the Kalevala branches out into stories of the creation of the earth, plants, creatures, and the sky. There are many stories of, romance, kidnapping, seduction, and magical spell casting and singing.

The Colours of Love explores the many shades of human intimacy and longing. In these poems, Zakir Hossain captures the tenderness of affection, the fire of desire, and the quiet ache of solitude. Moving between passion and reflection, his verses speak of bodies and souls, of fleeting moments that burn bright before fading into memory. Love becomes at once sacred and sensual, joyful and haunting, eternal and human.

Not only is the larger conflict unresolved by the end of that story, but several of the most famous events of the Trojan War are absent from its pages.
