On a country estate near Florence, ten young nobles who have fled the city to escape the plague tell each other a story for ten days to pass the time. The 100 novellas of the famous 'Decameron' are one of the most beautiful works of world literature. The diversity of characters and themes is unmatched, and to this day, the beauty, power, and vitality of storytelling captivate readers. Almost always, love takes center stage in these tales, which are focused on the joy of life and existence.
