   Recently finished this book for summer reading. I was expressly told to use only my book for my journal, but now that that's written, I'm wondering about other people's opinions. Has anybody else here read it? I came in knowing some of the musical, and assuming I'd love Don Quixote. As it turns out, I loved Sancho Panza. Cervantes himself was interesting too; I've never seen an author insert himself so many places in the book. The characters aren't truly developed until the second part though; don't judge the novel until you've read the whole thing. Largely due to its reputation, I would recommend it so that people could get to meet the characters as they originally stood. Anyone else's thoughts on their Don Quixote experience is welcome. What drew you to the characters? Is there sanity in madness? Humor (I actually laughed out loud at some parts. . .I mean, "from too much reading and too little sleep he went insane" what reader doesn't relate enough to laugh. . . .but was disgusted with some others)?Or whatever other topics interest you. Looking forward to discussions! XD |
