Don Quixote by Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra
An aging country gentleman, driven mad by chivalric romances, reinvents himself as a knight-errant and sets out with his loyal, shrewd squire on comic and poignant exploits—tilting at windmills, rescuing imagined ladies, and getting entangled in schemes—that contrast his lofty ideals with a prosaic, skeptical world, yielding a rich satire of romanticism and a profound meditation on imagination, identity, and friendship.
