A knight-errant’s comic and searching journey through sixteenth-century Spain

Don Quixote pairs the travels of its self-fashioned knight-errant with those of his squire, Sancho Panza, across sixteenth-century Spain. Framed as picaresque satire, the novel places chivalric aspiration alongside the practical world encountered on the road, giving its adventures both comic and tragic dimensions. This paperback presents Edith Grossman’s English translation and includes sixteen additional pages of P.S. material, with author interviews and suggested further reading. As a foundational work of early modern Spanish literature, it offers an expansive encounter with the ideals, misadventures, and companionship that shape Quixote and Sancho’s travels.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Readers interested in foundational works of Spanish and early modern literature
