Publisher's Summary

The most influential work of the entire Spanish literary canon and a founding work of modern Western literature, Don Quixote is also one of the greatest works ever written. Hugely entertaining but also moving at times, this episodic novel is built on the fantasy life of one Alonso Quixano, who lives with his niece and housekeeper in La Mancha. Quixano, obsessed by tales of knight errantry, renames himself "Don Quixote" and, with his faithful servant Sancho Panza, goes on a series of quests. Many of these adventures, including tilting at windmills, are established in European literary consciousness.

Originally published in two volumes a decade apart (in 1605 and 1615), Don Quixote has been brought to life in its entirety in this audiobook.

Don Quixote

Narration by Roy McMillan has been wonderful. He brought the story alive. I am not sure whether I would have 'read' the book. listening to it was a wonderful experience. It has been a part of my life since March this year.

Roy Mcmillans voice recreates a wonder.

This is an excellent audio presentation. To portray the mood and feelings of this great classic is an extraordinary achievement. This is one story I always wanted to listen to.

Classic novel but pretty redundant storytelling

Must read book simply because it’s a classic in literature. But very long, and as adult, I don’t see much value in reading it
