Just finished the epic Don Quixote, the Edith Grossman translation. Very entertaining and readable and often described as the first “modern” novel. After a month of being immersed in tales of knights errant I will miss the company of The Ingenious Gentleman Don Quixote of La Mancha and his faithful squire Sancho Panza.

Inside is the store mascot in a snorkel and mask, but also a large number of plastic inflatable jack-o'-lanterns.

Strange fact I discovered and found curious.

There is more Don Quixote fan fiction than Three Musketeers fan fiction. (Although way more stories that uses three musketeers as a name for a story in another fandom.)

A quotation from Cervantes

I’d be as good a king of my estate as any other King; and being so, I should do as I liked; and doing as I liked, I should take my pleasure; and taking my pleasure, I should be contented; and when one’s content, there’s nothing more to desire; and when there’s nothing more to desire, there’s an end of it.

[Tan Rey seria yo de mi estado, como cada uno del suyo: y siendolo, haria lo que quisiesse: y haziendo lo que quisiesse, haria mi gusto: y haziendo mi gusto, estaria contento: y en estando uno contento, no tiene mas que dessear: y no teniendo mas qu essear, acabose.]

Miguel de Cervantes (1547-1616) Spanish novelist
Don Quixote, Part 1, ch. 50 [Sancho] (1605) [tr. Cohen (1950)]
