Description

The Vintage Classics Europeans series - with covers provided by textile design firm Wallace Sewell, these are must-have editions of European masterpieces, celebrating the warp and weft of a shared literary treasury. TRANSLATED FROM THE SPANISH BY EDITH GROSSMANWidely regarded as the world's first modern novel, and one of the funniest and most tragic books ever written, Don Quixote chronicles the adventures of a noble knight and his faithful squire as they travel through sixteenth-century Spain.

Except the knight is not really a knight, his princesses are servant girls, his enchanted castles are inns and his giants are windmills.

Don Quixote's goodness is real however, and his wish for the world to be full of adventures and passion is so profoundly human that, four hundred years after its first appearance, his story still crackles, beguiles and inspires. 'If there is one novel you should read before you die, it is Don Quixote' Ben Okri
