Four months. I started Aprill shoures soote on January 1, and finished last week. I read from this almost every morning during that time. Once i was into the language, I adored this so much (except when he switched to dull prose). The stories were fine. The storyteller‘s wonderful, and interactions so entertaining, and Middle English verse and its freedom of expression, always drawing me in and unexpectedly charming.
