About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin.

This Penguin Classic is performed by Kayvan Novak, Josh Cohen, Alistair Petrie, and Richard Hughes.

Don Quixote has become so entranced by reading romances of chivalry that he determines to become a knight errant and pursue bold adventures, accompanied by his squire, the cunning Sancho Panza. As they roam the world together, the aging Quixote's fancy leads them wildly astray. At the same time the relationship between the two men grows in 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.

Featured Article: 50+ Undying Quotes About Life from Acclaimed Authors


Though it's hard to argue with Merriam-Webster, we all know that life means something more than the standard dictionary definition—or, at least, we want it to. If you're searching for insights into the meaning of life, or words of inspiration to make your life more meaningful, there's no better source than authors of great works of literature. From Shakespeare to Alice Walker, from Jane Austen to Saul Bellow, iconic authors have a lot to say about life.

I enjoyed this book from start to finish. Long live Don Quixota and Sancho Panza

A wonderful Classic

I thought it was very well done. I have not read it in spanish. so this opinion only comes from this being the first time I've gone through this novel in the English language. I was surprised at the various parts when Don Quixote - and the other characters - did not have the same voice. However, that's easily adjustable. Some of the wilder depictions of characters are much appreciated in aiding the listener with how we're supposed to perceive that character

It's a LONG story. But very well worth it and very well presented. Recommend.

Long story, but an entertaining one

I got a little impatient with all the side stories and I felt that Cervantes had so much in his head he was cramming it in. Sancho Panza was delightful and I admired Don Quixote. His wisdom was clear.
The world could use a knight like he was.

Glad I listened

I often laughed out loud! I did not expect such humor! I’m sorry I don’t speak/read Spanish. I’ve heard that humor doesn’t translate as well as other genre!

Outstanding
