About the book

Miguel de Cervantes's Don Quixote follows an ageing gentleman who becomes so obsessed with tales of medieval chivalry that he decides to become a knight-errant himself. Accompanied by the practical Sancho Panza, Don Quixote travels through Spain interpreting ordinary people and situations as heroic adventures. Comic, moving and extraordinarily influential, the novel explores imagination, idealism, reality and the power of stories to reshape the way people understand the world.
