A group of young nobles flee plague-stricken Florence to a villa over ten days they tell 100 tales of love, trickery, lust, and fortune, from bawdy pranks and clever wives to tragic devotion and saintly frauds. Their storytelling becomes a shelter and a mirror of a world remade by wit, desire, and survival—where laughter is a cure and every night promises another surprise.
