Reviews
"A more profound and powerful work than this is not to be met withâ€¦[It is] the final and greatest utterance of the human mind." Fyodor Dostoevsky "It can be said that all prose fiction is a variation on the theme of Don Quixote ." Lionel Trilling "[ Don Quixote is] the first and best of all novels, which nevertheless is more than a novel." Harold Bloom "When Don Quixote went out into the world, that world turned into a mystery before his eyes. That is the legacy of the first European novel to the entire subsequent history of the novel. The novelist teaches its reader to comprehend the world as a question." Milan Kundera, "A more profound and powerful work than this is not to be met withâ€¦[It is] the final and greatest utterance of the human mind." Fyodor Dostoevsky "It can be said that all prose fiction is a variation on the theme of Don Quixote." Lionel Trilling "[Don Quixote is] the first and best of all novels, which nevertheless is more than a novel." Harold Bloom "When Don Quixote went out into the world, that world turned into a mystery before his eyes. That is the legacy of the first European novel to the entire subsequent history of the novel. The novelist teaches its reader to comprehend the world as a question." Milan Kundera, "Cervantes's masterpiece is lucky to have found so perfect a translator as the flamboyant Smollett. The rambunctious personalities of author and translator are ideally matched." From the Trade Paperback edition., "A more profound and powerful work than this is not to be met withâ€¦[It is] the final and greatest utterance of the human mind." Fyodor Dostoevsky "It can be said that all prose fiction is a variation on the theme ofDon Quixote."

Synopsis
Our ceaseless human quest for something larger than ourselves has never been represented with more insight and love than in this story of Don Quixote -pursuing his vision of glory in a mercantile age-and his shrewd, skeptical manservant, Sancho Panza. As they set out to right the world's wrongs in knightly combat, the narrative moves from philosophical speculation to broad comedy, taking in pastoral, farce, and fantasy on the way. The first and still the greatest of all European novels, Don Quixote has been as important for the modern world as the poems of Homer were for the ancients. Translated by P. A. Motteux
