The Lives, Heroic Deeds & Sayings of Gargantua & his son Pantagruel. Translated From the French Into English by Sir Thomas Urquhart and Peter Le Motteux

Peter Anthony Motteux, Francois Rabelais, Thomas Urquhart

A satirical and ribald masterpiece of Renaissance literature, Rabelais' Gargantua and Pantagruel has captured imaginations for centuries. This translation by Sir Thomas Urquhart and Peter Le Motteux brings the bawdy and irreverent humor to life in vivid detail. With over-the-top characters and outrageous situations, this book is a delight for anyone with a taste for the zany and the absurd.
