Beschreibung

Discover the original adventure story as dreamers, fools and knights errant collide in this brilliant satire that is widely regarded as the world's first modern novel.

'If there is one novel you should read before you die, it is Don Quixote' Ben Okri

One of the funniest and most tragic books ever written, Don Quixote chronicles the famous picaresque adventures of the noble knight errant Don Quixote de La Mancha and his faithful squire, Sancho Panza, as they travel through sixteenth-century Spain.
Comic realism meets chivalric adventure in the story of two of literature's most unforgettable characters.

Über den Autor

Miguel de Cervantes was born on September 29, 1547, in Alcala de Henares, Spain. At twenty-three he enlisted in the Spanish militia and in 1571 fought against the Turks in the battle of Lepanto, where a gunshot wound permanently crippled his left hand. He spent four more years at sea and then another five as a slave after being captured by Barbary pirates. Ransomed by his family, he returned to Madrid but his disability hampered him; it was in debtor's prison that he began to write Don Quixote. Cervantes wrote many other works, including poems and plays, but he remains best known as the author of Don Quixote. He died on April 23, 1616.
