![]() ![]() A great read, worth the hours it requires, rewarding in humour, truthfulness, sorrow and lessons in human nature. This is because there really is a better way to be, and the Don's total commitment to his cause can't help but inspire. Those seeking to disabuse him of his delusions are often drawn into them, or find themselves converted to another way of thinking, and even those who start off scornful of him end up desolate at his passing. Danger to life and limb is never avoided, indeed often actively sought as the pre-condition of the bravery the Don aspires to in order to live up to his own expectations. Whilst their exploits are often quite funny, there is a far more serious point being made about reality and how to live an unconventional existence and its consequences (something Cervantes knew all too well). The characters learn things as they go along, and have complex dispositions and motivations themselves as well as a dry commentary on their actions conducted from above that draws our attention to their flaws and graces. For one, the tale is told without pomposity but in a register so knowing that the idea that he invented the modernist novel is hardly fanciful. Don Quixote by Cervantes Saavedra, Miguel de Grossman, Edith (TRN) Bloom, Harold (INT) and a great selection of related books, art and collectibles. Cervantes' masterpiece isn't at all what I thought it might be. This is likewise one of the factors by obtaining the soft documents of this Don Quixote Translated By Edith. ![]()
