Description
"Don Quixote" by Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra, translated by John Rutherford, is celebrated as one of the greatest and most influential novels ever written. First published in the early 17th century, this epic tale follows the misadventures of Don Quixote, a country gentleman who, inspired by tales of chivalry, sets out to become a knight-errant in a world that has long left knights behind. Accompanied by his loyal squire, Sancho Panza, Don Quixote confronts windmills he believes to be giants, rescues peasants he imagines as noble ladies, and battles illusions shaped by his boundless imagination.
More than a satire of medieval romances, *Don Quixote* is a profound meditation on the nature of reality, identity, friendship, and the power of literature itself. Cervantes weaves together humor, pathos, and social commentary to create a novel that is at once deeply entertaining and endlessly thought-provoking.
John Rutherford's acclaimed translation captures the richness of Cervantes' language and the wit of his storytelling, making this edition a vivid and faithful rendering for modern readers. A cornerstone of world literature, *Don Quixote* remains as relevant, inspiring, and captivating today as it was four centuries ago.
