Don Quixote - Vol. 1
by Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra
'Don Quixote - Vol. 1' Summary
Don Quixote, a classic of Western literature, tells the story of Alonso Quixano, a minor landowner who, driven by his love for chivalric romances, becomes convinced he is a knight errant. Taking the name Don Quixote de la Mancha, he sets out on adventures with his loyal squire, Sancho Panza, seeking glory and fighting for justice. Their journey is filled with hilarious misadventures, as Quixote's idealism clashes with the harsh realities of the world. Cervantes' work explores the power of imagination, the nature of reality, and the folly of pursuing impossible dreams. Through its satire and humor, Don Quixote critiques societal norms and the human condition.Book Details
