Don Quixote

Don Quixote

by Miguel de Cervantes  •  Edith Grossman (Translator)

  • LITERATURE
  • 2003
  • PAPER
  • 976 PAGES

The 400-year-old landmark novel (the most famous work in Spanish literature) in a sparkling new translation. Edith Grossman (better known for her translations of contemporary masters like Gabriel Garcia Marquez) aims for uninflected, accessible prose, dumping the quaint, old-fashioned tone and mock-chivalry of earlier translations. Fear not, it's an absorbing tale, and quite funny. This sparkling translation into lively, modern English makes the story of a mad romantic and his sidekick even more entertaining.  (SPN211, $16.99)
