the best modern translation
I often return to this granddaddy of novels, and consider this particular translation the best. Grossman's translation is stellar, but it lacks the brio, the spirited tone and zeal of BR's rendering. Certainly this translation is sometimes free-and-easy and best serves an American reader, but its rhythm and gusto more than compensate for the flaws an academic might stub her toe on, and that rush ...

Salman Rushdie ...
... avers that, this, the Tobias Smollett English-language translation most faithfully retains the quixotic and sprightly spirit of the original. Given that life is short and that I will only ever read Don Quixote once, Rushdie's imprimatur is good enough for me.

A highly entertaining, unforgettable masterpiece
I read Don Quijote in Spanish (my native language) and actually started the book as a sort of challenge. I am not daunted by long books or by the classics, but I was afraid I would not care much for the story of the madman who fancies himself a knight after reading too many chivalry novels. I started out with a lot of dread - the language is old-fashioned and it needs a little getting used to. ...

Beautiful!
The translation is perfect except, as the translator has noted, on the poems found through out the book. The book itself is just plain beautiful, the author, Cervantes, is a master of prose and creativity, not to mention he has a great sense of humor. In my opinion, he is not too far off from Shakespeare. A+

Without discretion there can be no humor
'Don Quixote' is largely considered to be a satire on the popular chivalric ballads of Cervantes' day, but don't be fooled. This novel is no satire on chivalry, itself. Indeed, through the trials of Quixote and Sancho Panza, Cervantes is perhaps the greatest promoter of chivalric ideas that the West has ever known. No other protagonist so thoroughly embodies the ideals of heroism, romantic love, ...

Don Quixote
This certainly was one of the more entertaining books I've read. The adventures of Sancho and Don Quixote were very well written, funny, and has captured the hearts of millions throughout the centuries. Don Quixote is a madman who believes himself to be a knight-errant destined to return the world to the prior "order". Immediately he gets dressed up in a very silly fashion and starts by ...

Lope tuvo que reconocer la ejemplaridad de las novelas cervantinas, por mas a reganadientes que lo hiciese, en el sentido de que el unico modelo a seguir en Espana, el unico que el puede recordar y citar es Miguel de Cervantes. Para escribir novelas cortas habia que modelarse en las de Cervantes, que en este sentido eran ejemplares. Detras de Cervantes, en Espana, no habia nada. Y esto lo sabia muy bien el manco sano, como lo demuestra cada ...

charming stories
Those are beautiful, charming stories about life and characters in Cervantes's time, perfectly despicted. I would suggest to read them in Spanish so as not to loose the amazing prose of the author. I read The Little Gipsy Girl when I was a child and still remember the magic of the story.
