Tales of the Heptameron, Vol. I of v by Margaret, Queen of Navarre, Fiction, Classics, Literary, Action & Adventure

The storytelling soon devolves into a verbal battle between the sexes, as the tales concern lovers, romantic conquests, and women's virtue -- objects of pride and power. The Heptameron is a book to delight, offend, and educate twentieth-century readers. Highly recommended.
