Details: Cervantes' tale of the deranged gentleman who turns knight-errant, tilts at windmills & battles with sheep in the service of the lady of his dreams, Dulcinea del Toboso, has fascinated generations of readers, & inspired other creative artists such as Flaubert, Picasso & Richard Strauss. The tall, thin knight & his short, fat squire, Sancho Panza, have found their way into films, cartoons & even computer games. Supposedly intended as a parody of the most popular escapist fiction of the day, the 'books of chivalry', this precursor of the modern novel broadened & deepened into a sophisticated, comic account of the contradictions of human nature. Cervantes' greatest work can be enjoyed on many levels, all suffused with a subtle irony that reaches out to encompass the reader. Ideal for: Fans of classic literature. This paperback book 768 pages & measures: 19.7 x 12.7 x 4cm
