Don Quixote by Miguel de Cervantes is a timeless masterpiece that follows the adventures of an idealistic and delusional knight errant, Alonso Quijano, who, after reading too many chivalric romances, sets out to revive the lost age of chivalry. Accompanied by his loyal squire, Sancho Panza, Don Quixote embarks on a series of misadventures, mistaking windmills for giants and inns for castles. Cervantes's satirical novel brilliantly captures the clash between idealism and reality, offering a profound exploration of the human condition
