Don Quixote. In 2 volumes
19.99 €
Four centuries ago, Cervantes set new demands on reality, expanded the horizons of the European novel, and the Knight of the Sorrowful Countenance set out on an eternal journey.

Don Quixote and his squire Sancho Panza, balancing between reality and illusion, between romantic madness and natural sanity, cast two recognizable shadows that stretch across the plain of centuries and reach us. This recognizable effect is enhanced by the brilliant graphics of Gustave Doré, the finest illustrator of the immortal novel.

"Don Quixote makes the noble decision to revive and restore to a colorless world the vibrant calling of knight-errantry, with its uniquely strict rules and all its glittering mirages, passions, and exploits." — V. Nabokov

The edition is supplemented with renowned illustrations by Gustave Doré, a preface, and notes by Viktor Andreyev, a renowned Hispanist and translator of Latin American authors. The interior design features illustrations by Gustave Doré.
