This enchanting new translation and abridgement of the immortal story of Don Quixote of La Mancha by the noted scholar Walter Starkie brings the modern reader Cervantes' great classic in it's most enjoyable form. Humor, insight, compassion and knowledge of the world of underlie the antic adventures of the lanky knight clad in rusty armor and his earthy squire, Sancho Panza.

The message I get from this book: Happiness can be found in being the creator of our own reality.

Yes, It's a long read. But Quixote is so lovable (and hilarious) that you'll miss him when you take a break from reading this lengthy novel.
