Don Quixote has become so entranced by reading romances of chivalry that he determines to become a knight errant and pursue bold adventures, accompanied by his squire, the cunning Sancho Panza. As they roam the world together, the aging Quixote's fancy leads them wildly astray. At the same time the relationship between the two men grows in fascinating subtlety. Often considered to be the first modern novel, Don Quixote is a wonderful burlesque of the popular literature its disordered protagonist is obsessed with.

A wonderful Classic

I enjoyed this book from start to finish. Long live Don Quixota and Sancho Panza

Slow to very slow at times

I enjoyed this book even though I found some parts very boring. I found hard to enjoy the critique of literary genres and the poems but loved the quirky humor which pervades the book and makes it unique.

the readers

I loved the voice of Sancho panda. wonderful story of what's really important in life.
laughed a loud many times.

Glad I listened

I got a little impatient with all the side stories and I felt that Cervantes had so much in his head he was cramming it in. Sancho Panza was delightful and I admired Don Quixote. His wisdom was clear.
The world could use a knight like he was.

Magnificient Narration

Probably one of my all time favorite books if your on the fence i definitely recommend you give this a chance
