This is an automatically translated description
"The Decameron" is a book of short stories containing one hundred stories told by young people in ten days (hence the title of the work - "decameron", from the Greek - "ten-day diary"), stories about a person, his sins and victories, overcoming difficulties, love, joy, disappointments and hopes, in short - about life. In his last years, the writer, tired of the attacks of the church, was ready to recognise the Decameron as a mistake of youth, but his descendants called this "mistake" Boccaccio's most famous work, a world masterpiece that made his name immortal.
