Part of Penguin's beautiful hardback Clothbound Classics series,
designed by the award-winning Coralie Bickford-Smith, these
delectable and collectible editions are bound in high-quality,
colourful, tactile cloth with foil stamped into the design. Don
Quixote has become so entranced by reading romances of chivalry
that he determines to become a knight errant and pursue bold
adventures, accompanied by his squire, the cunning Sancho Panza. As
they roam the world together, the aging Quixote's fancy leads them
wildly astray, tilting at windmills, fighting with friars, and
distorting the rural Spanish landscape into a fantasy of
impenetrable fortresses and wicked sorcerers. At the same time the
relationship between the two men grows in fascinating subtlety.
Often considered to be the first modern novel, Don Quixote is a
wonderful burlesque of the popular literature its disordered
protagonist is obsessed with.
