Synopsis
Perhaps the greatest--and certainly the most famous--novel ever written in Spanish, "Don Quixote" is the classic picaresque tale of a knight-errant living in a world which has no use for him. Written as a history, it gives an account of the life of Don Quixote of la Mancha, a deluded 17th-century Spaniard who believes himself to be a medieval knight and attempts to win renown through acts of chivalry that are invariably disastrous or absurd. One of the earliest examples of the novel form, it remains to this day one of the most influential and best-loved works of fiction in any language.

Industry Reviews
"It will not be denied that the breaking point, the point where the modern world broke away laughing from this last medievalism--that the symbolic act and moment was 'Don Quixote'....I want to ask whether, if Don Quixote returned to-day with the same wild ways of knight errantry, it would not rather be the knight errant that was sensible and the world all around him that was crazy. The poor knight's mockers were in the morning of the modern world; for them a more solid science, a more subtle statecraft, were not only growing, but promising things....The rational world has turned out much more irrational than the Dark Ages....The nations have found more nonsense and nightmare in the build of guns than they ever did in the breaking of lances."
New York Times Book Review - G. K. Chesterton (09/15/1912)

"All prose fiction is a variation of the theme of 'Don Quixote': ...the problem of appearance and reality."
Lionel Trilling

"[Edith Grossman's translation] is a major literary achievement. For to read DON QUIXOTE in an increasingly Manichaean world of simplistic Good versus Evil and inquisitorial dogmas, becomes one of the healthiest experiences a modern, democratic citizen can undertake."
New York Times Book Review - Carlos Fuentes (11/02/2003)
