- Ten young Florentines wait out the plague by telling each other stories, and most of them are funnier and filthier than you'd expect from the 1300s, full of scheming friars and wives outwitting dull husbands. Dip in and out; nobody reads all hundred straight through.
- You get a wonderfully unusual river journey here: Joam Garral and his family travel down the Amazon on an enormous floating farm, while a buried mystery shadows the celebration. It’s leisurely and full of period geography, but the raft, the river, and the family tension stay with you.
