small h book "The Decameron" was also filmed by Netflix!
This handed down classic tells various stories that subvert the world view in the golden age. Three men and seven women isolate themselves in the wilderness. The sense of weirdness and excitement is vivid on the page. I wonder how well Netflix will film it...
