A few years ago I read the complete Decameron. Out of a hundred stories, obviously I wouldn't remember all of them, so this time I just read this selection of about half. These are all classics. My favorite is the one about the nuns all sharing the gardener sexually; this story is about the joy of sex, and it is fun. The final story, about a cipher named Griselda, is bizarre because she puts up with her brute husband so willingly and without complaint. It gave me a lot to think about and condemn.
