This Saturday morning has been a long time coming as Saturday morning commitments change.  However, we have finally managed to get together.  The idea was to discuss Don Quixote, but unfortunately it proved harder to read than expected (1000 pages in full version.)  The ESOL version was more manageable, but did not have the same interesting language of the illustrated version.  Nonetheless, we are ticking this one off the list.


Don Quixote by Miguel de Cervantes

Don Quixote has become so entranced reading tales of chivalry that he decides to turn knight errant himself. In the company of his faithful squire, Sancho Panza, these exploits blossom in all sorts of wonderful ways. While Quixote's fancy often leads him astray—he tilts at windmills, imagining them to be giants—Sancho acquires cunning and a certain sagacity. Sane madman and wise fool, they roam the world together-and together they have haunted readers' imaginations for nearly four hundred years.
