Don Quixote

The lines of this book are too close to each other and the letters are small, making it very difficult to read or gives you ete strain.

The book came in a timely manner, but unfortunately it is mislabeled, I received only English edition. The book is already thick as it is with only English translation, I don't understand why it is labeled as English/Spanish edition.

VERY VERY FUNNY. But also has pathos, the character of the the title is all too human with all the frailties, vanities of such, but a big heart, he means well but is deluded in his determination to do good, like most of us in fact, we often do most harm when we mean well, and we unintentionally hurt those we most love. A wonderful read. The translation (Cervantes is Spanish of course) is from the early 18th Century. And it also amazing to think that Cervantes was a contemporary of Shakespeare, I'd like to think that they had great respect for each other if they met, but that is unlikely because of the religious wars that were prevailing at the time over the Reformation.

This book is extremely long. 1000 pages of extremely small font if I remember right. But it is absolutely hilarious. Don Quixote is a completely delusional man, probably schizophrenia, and drags along a naive fool Sancho Pancha on these random adventures, getting seriously injured multiple times, but somehow not getting killed. I especially loved how every time something was revealed as no longer being some sort of mythical beast, he'd blame it on the necromancers. Definitely recommend. You won't stop laughing. Probably more practical to read an excerpt every night though

I've read this in the past and enjoyed it. I haven't read this copy yet, but I was hoping to improve my Spanish by comparing the two versions. I wish I had read the reviews first. The Amazon listing is incorrect, the book is entirely English. Still a good book, but alas, not that which I had sought.

I just finished this book, reading a page or so a night and was so sad when i closed the book. Was such a joy to read from start to finish. Had so many laugh out loud moments. Im so appreciative of what the author gave to the world. In fact, i bought 3 more copies of this translation to give as gifts.
