This edition serves as an introduction to Marguerite de Navarre’s classic collection of 72 tales from the French Renaissance, the Heptaméron. Based on Boccaccio's Decameron, Marguerite's collection also relates a series of tales told by travelers to pass the time. In this case, five men and five women have come to the Pyrenees to be rejuvenated by the mineral waters when a flood forces them to gather in a monastery as a bridge is repaired.
