DON QUIXOTE

Don Quixote has become so entranced by reading romances of chivalry that he determines to become a knight errant and pursue bold adv entures, accompanied by his squire, Sancho Panza. The ageing Quixote's fancy leads them widly astray while the relationship between the two men grows with fascinating subtlety. Often considered to be the first modern novel, Don Quixote is a wonderful burlesque of the popular literature its disordered protagonist is obsessed with.
