Only Part 1

Published by William , 9 days ago
Only part 1. Annoying I have to try to find the second part now. Should have ordered it off Amazon

Abridged

Published by Natalie , 4 months ago
Maybe it is my fault for not fully investigating before purchasing, but this is an abridged version of Don Quixote. I honestly don't even understand why abridged versions exist and why they're not more clearly labeled. If someone went through and edited a masterwork, it's no longer by Cervantes; it's by the editor. Will have to buy a different copy.

Different book than pictured

Published by Kristie M , 1 year ago
Based on ISBN and picture I was expecting the abridged book by Cervantes but this one is unabridged. The book I received does not appear to have an ISBN number so I’m not sure how they assigned one.

Wrong translation

Published by Jncc14 , 1 year ago
Based on the ISBN and the book cover, I thought I was getting the Tom Lathrop translation with illustrations by Jack Davis. Instead, I received a Borders Classics Abridged Edition with no translator listed. It is also unclear whether this is a complete translation and how abridged it actually is. The book I received has the same ISBN-10 as the one I ordered but a different ISBN-13.

Top Notch Book Condition

Published by loloj0nes1 , 2 years ago
Had to read some of the book for my English class and was one of the more entertaining ones. The font was super small and there were a ton of pages though!

Smollett translation

Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago
I have looked at a number of translations of Don Quixote. I don't know why this tranlation is often passed over. It is my favorite by far and I think it stands on its own as a masterpiece. I can't imagine the original language surpassing it.
