Don Quixote (a Classics Novel by Miguel de Cervantes)Illustrated Edition by Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra Pdf
"The reading of all good books is like conversation with the finest (people) of the past centuries." - Descartes 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. Don Quixote is the classic story. Called the first modern novel, this marvelous book has stood the test of time to become irrevocably intertwined with the fabric of society. Sixteenth-century Spanish gentleman Don Quixote, fed by his own delusional fantasies, takes to the road in search of chivalrous adventures. But his quest leads to more trouble than triumph. At once humorous, romantic, and sad, Don Quixote is a literary landmark. With its experimental form and literary playfulness, Don Quixote has been generally recognized as the first modern novel. "A room without books is like a body without a soul." - ... A 19th century classics literature edition.
