Set against the backdrop of the Black Death in 1348, ten young Florentines escape to the countryside, where they engage in storytelling as a means of coping with their circumstances. The narrative unfolds through one hundred novelle that tackle diverse themes, including domestic struggles and the political dynamics between Christians and Arabs. David Wallace provides insights into the text's connection to Boccaccio's proto-capitalist Florence, while also addressing gender issues and the influence of the Decameron on later literature, notably Chaucer and the novel.
