A review by mistermetadata
Don Quixote by Miguel de Cervantes

4.0

Gave up about halfway through book 2, but book 1 bangs and its influence as first modern novel is impossible to deny; the Yale lectures on the book I watched via YouTube were a great help. Read this in 2018 but held on to the, if you'll excuse me, quixotic notion that I would eventually finish it, but now I am content knowing I took a good crack at it and got everything out of it that I am likely to at the time. First book is a five, second book is a three, I'm splitting the difference here.
