Don Quixote: The First Modern Novel—A Heroic Misadventure That Redefined Literature

He dreamed of knighthood in a world that no longer believed in it.

Don Quixote is a literary masterpiece that follows the misadventures of a deluded Spanish nobleman who, inspired by tales of knights and honor, sets out to revive chivalry—accompanied by his faithful squire, Sancho Panza. With windmills as giants and inns as castles, the line between reality and imagination blurs into a deeply human and hilariously tragic quest.

Written by Miguel de Cervantes in the 17th century, this novel revolutionized storytelling with its groundbreaking blend of satire, pathos, humor, and metafiction. As relevant today as it was 400 years ago, Don Quixote explores themes of idealism, delusion, friendship, and the search for purpose.

This edition includes annotations, historical insights, and classic illustrations that bring the story and its significance to life for modern readers.

"The best novel ever written." — Harold Bloom "A profound work of art that mocks and honors its genre all at once." — The New York Times Book Review
