“Lynn Staley’s translation, a classroom classic, has made the marvelous world of Margery Kempe accessible to myriad readers while preserving the voice of the Middle English text. Now published with new criticism and a revised introduction, this second edition promises to introduce a new generation of readers to one of the most fascinating figures of the English Middle Ages.”
—ALEXANDRA VERINI, Ashoka University
