{"product_id":"don-quixote-9780241347768","title":"Don Quixote","description":"\u003cp\u003ePart of Penguin's beautiful hardback Clothbound Classics series, designed by the award-winning Coralie Bickford-Smith, these delectable and collectible editions are bound in high-quality, colourful, tactile cloth with foil stamped into the design.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDon Quixote has become so entranced by reading romances of chivalry that he determines to become a knight errant and pursue bold adventures, accompanied by his squire, the cunning Sancho Panza. As they roam the world together, the aging Quixote's fancy leads them wildly astray, tilting at windmills, fighting with friars, and distorting the rural Spanish landscape into a fantasy of impenetrable fortresses and wicked sorcerers. At the same time the relationship between the two men grows in fascinating subtlety. Often considered to be the first modern novel, Don Quixote is a wonderful burlesque of the popular literature its disordered protagonist is obsessed with.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePenguin Clothbound Classics are bound in cloth and not paper. The design is stamped on in foil, and each cover repeats one small icon taken from the story. The series was designed by Coralie Bickford-Smith, who took her inspiration from Victorian bookbinding. Each book has coloured endpapers and a ribbon bookmark. They make beautiful presents.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe foil can rub off if the books are stacked tightly, so give them a little room on the shelf.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor: Miguel de Cervantes\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003ch4\u003eClassic fiction (pre c 1945), Fiction in translation\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003ch5\u003ePublished on 5 Jul 2018 by Penguin Books Ltd.\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHardback\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Cervantes, Miguel de","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55718424314234,"sku":"9780241347768","price":25.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0373\/4125\/files\/9780241347768.jpg?v=1754413889","url":"https:\/\/belfastbooks.co.uk\/de\/products\/don-quixote-9780241347768","provider":"Belfast Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
