What this book is about
Publicada en dos partes en 1605 y 1615, esta obra cumbre de Miguel de Cervantes sigue a Alonso Quijano, un hidalgo manchego cuya afición desmedida a los libros de caballerías lo lleva a creer que es un caballero andante llamado Don Quijote. Junto a su escudero Sancho Panza, emprende aventuras épicas en su imaginación pero ridículas en la realidad. Considerada la primera novela moderna y una de las obras más importantes de la literatura universal.
