Vorige week woensdag was ik met een vriendin naar Il Decamerone van Pier Paolo Pasolini geweest. Het zien van de film inspireerde me tot het herlezen van dit dunne boekje uit de Penguin 60 pence reeks.
De Decamerone is zo'n 650 jaar geleden geschreven en de verhalen zijn nog steeds goed leesbaar. Om de pestepidemie in Florence te ontvluchten gaan tien jongelui op stap en brengen de tijd door met het vertellen van verhalen, tien maal tien verhalen in totaal.
De selectie in dit boekje geeft een goed overzicht. De verhalen gaan vooral over de liefde en eten en drinken, over het goede leven dus. Vaak zijn ze ook erg komisch.
De film van Pasolini is ook erg onderhoudend, van de verhalen die hij heeft verfilmd staan er 3 in dit boekje. Leuk om als tussendoortje te lezen.

First words
Not many years ago, there lived in Bologna a brilliant physician of almost universal renown, and perhaps he is alive to this day, whose name was Master Alberto.
