Summary
Don Quixote is a middle-aged gentleman from the region of La Mancha in central Spain. Obsessed with the chivalrous ideals touted in the many books he has read, he decides to take up his lance and sword to defend the helpless and destroy the wicked. After a first failed adventure, he sets out on a second one with a somewhat befuddled laborer named Sancho Panza, whom he has persuaded to accompany him.

In many works, the experiences of a man like Don Quixote would probably appear tragic. He's repeatedly beaten, chased away, lied to, and misunderstood. But in the hands of Miguel de Cervantes, these events are comic.

I use this audiobook when I can’t sleep. I can wake up in the middle of the night, hear an anecdotal event sometimes memorable And go back to sleep

I really enjoyed this book, great for long car rides. However, the second half did fall a bit flat for me.

It's a classic, but just impossible to finish. there is the reason of the narrator, who has the tendency so use a very unusual rythm of the English language. Intolerable! Then there is the reason of the story. It is extremely repetitive, thus very boring in the long run. I, certainly, could not finish the story. I manage approximately 3 hours of it.
