The Canterbury Tales Geoffrey Chaucer English
The Wife of Bath alone is worth the price of admission, bragging about outliving five husbands before her story even starts. It's rowdy, gossipy, sometimes flat-out filthy, and the Middle English takes patience, so grab a good modern edition and read it out loud.
The Monk M. G. Lewis English
If you think Gothic novels are all fainting and fog, this one goes places that still feel shocking: Ambrosio is Madrid's most revered preacher, and watching his vanity get worked open by the mysterious Matilda is genuinely unsettling. Lurid, cruel in spots, and weirdly fast-moving for 1796.
