Om denne boken

"The Tales of the Heptameron, Vol. 4 (of 5)" by Marguerite is a collection of stories published posthumously in 1558. Inspired by Boccaccio's Decameron, this frame narrative presents tales told by stranded travelers awaiting a bridge's completion. The stories explore love, lust, infidelity, and sexual intrigue, blending entertainment with moral complexity. Through witty dialogue and dramatic irony, characters debate virtue and vice while sharing provocative accounts of nobles, cuckolded spouses, and forbidden affairs that challenge Renaissance notions of honor and desire.
