By: Giovanni BoccaccioA complete edition of the hilarious, bawdy, irreverent masterpiece of medieval Italy—and an inspiration for the Netflix dark comedy The Decameron—in an acclaimed translation
In the summer of 1348, as the Black Death ravages their city, ten young Florentines take refuge in the countryside. They amuse themselves by each telling a story a day for the ten days they are destined to remain there—a hundred stories of love, adventure and surprising twists of fate. Less preoccupied with abstract concepts of morality or religion than with earthly values, the tales range from the bawdy Peronella hiding her lover in a tub to Ser Cepperello, who, despite his unholy effrontery, becomes a Saint. The result is a towering monument of European literature and a masterpiece of imaginative narrative.
This is the second edition of G. H. McWilliam’s acclaimed translation of The Decameron. His introduction illuminates the worlds of Boccaccio and of his storytellers, showing Boccaccio as a master of vivid and exciting prose fiction.

Love this Dress Shirt
These are my favorite white dress shirts. Unfortunately, not always in stock. Hard to find.
Fits comfortably. Easy to wash and almost wrinkle free after each wash. I barely have to iron them.
Fabric is thick, not transparent at all but still breathable. Price you pay was set perfectly according to the quality of the fabric.

Dressy Shirt, Casual Price
This slim fit Van Heusen has a fair price, but the feel of a fancy shirt. It's lightweight and has a bit of a glossy sheen. Despite all the negative reviews about the cut being too bulky in the middle, this fits me to a T. I'm pretty slim -- at 6' 140# -- and, while slightly generous in shoulder width and sleeve length, the shirt tapers at the waist very nicely. If tail length is the problem, SHIRT STAYS are a cheap, simple solution. Some reviews also complained about wrinkles. Well, DRY CLEAN -- because yeah, if you're tossing a cotton/poly shirt into a washer and dryer, it will get wrinkly. I pressed the shirt off using an IRON without any problem. In fact, this shirt seemed easier to press than others. Great shirt. Good deal.

Stain Shield Works, But Not Really a Slim Fit Shirt
Good quality for the price. Impressed with the stain shield which actually prevents sweat/wetness from showing... even in extreme heat. No joke. But this is not a slim fit shirt in my opinion. Too much material at the waist with not a lot of length to be able to assist in tucking it all in. Also, I imagine it's the stain shield, but there is definitely a chemical smell to the shirt that survived a few washings. If you're sensitive to that smell, it could be an issue.

Beautiful shirt!
I bought this along with Calvin Klein gingham tie in blue and although different brands they matched perfectly. I bought these for my 22year old son who doesn’t like to buy clothes except tee shirts. Also got Dockers navy pants for him to wear to funeral. He looked great in all of it and he can wear to other dressy events and look sharp. He was also very happy with the fit and look. Amazon delivery was speedy before we left town! Thank you.
