When Father Quixote, a local priest of the Spanish village of El
Toboso who claims ancestry to Cervantes' fictional Don Quixote, is
elevated to the rank of monsignor through a clerical error, he sets
out on a journey to Madrid to purchase purple socks appropriate to
his new station. Accompanying him on his mission is his best
friend, Sancho, the Communist ex-mayor of the village who argues
politics and religion with Quixote and rescues him from the various
troubles his innocence lands him in along the way. Published in
1932, "Monsignor Quixote "is Graham Greene's last religious novel,
a fond homage to Cervantes, and a sincere exploration into the
meaning of faith in the modern world. This edition features a new
introduction by John Auchard.
