[A] major reinterpretation of Cervantes's great novel. . . . In the most lucid prose, David Quint proposes that the relation of Don Quixote to its own 'modern' times and to the modernity of the novel form itself has been seriously misunderstood.Maria DiBattista, Princeton University."This book presents a strong new reading of Cervantes.
