Synopsis
Nominated as one of America's best-loved novels by PBS's The Great American Read Don Quixote has become so entranced reading tales of chivalry that he decides to turn knight errant himself. In the company of his faithful squire, Sancho Panza, these exploits blossom in all sorts of wonderful ways. While Quixote's fancy often leads him astray--he tilts at windmills, imagining them to be giants--Sancho acquires cunning and a certain sagacity. Sane madman and wise fool, they roam the world together-and together they have haunted readers' imaginations for nearly four hundred years. With its experimental form and literary playfulness, Don Quixote has been generally recognized as the first modern novel. This Penguin Classics edition, with its beautiful new cover design, includes John Rutherford's masterly translation, which does full justice to the energy and wit of Cervantes's prose, as well as a brilliant critical introduction by Roberto Gonzalez Echevarriá., Nominated as one of America's best-loved novels by PBS's The Great American Read Don Quixote has become so entranced reading tales of chivalry that he decides to turn knight errant himself.

    Great book, better than “good” quality

    Great book! Quality was listed as “good” but I would rank it higher than that. Loving it so far! (Have only read the abridged version so this is intimidating but it’s actually an easy read.

    Great adventure novel, short chapters

    This book is quite long but, you'll have no problem getting through it because of how short and fun the chapters are. I usually take a while to finish books but this one took me no time to nearly finish.

    Great novel and translation.

    Don Quixote is perhaps the greatest novel ever written. This translation by John Rutherford brings out the humor in the text. The item itself contained more back ink underlining than I am accustomed to in a book advertised to be in “good” condition.
