I've got to buy this one and sit down on a hot summer day. Read slow and enjoy! There's so much humour and liveliness!

This version with the blue border has an audiobook that matches 100% (Burton Raffel Modern English translation) It's delightful to listen to.

Eventually, the slow, tedious Middle English version would be fabulous also. Sigh, so many books, so little time.
