Episode notes

It's impressive that it is holding so many interesting ideas and speaking both forward and backward in time thematically. It's like back and forth in himself mostly, like there are other countries you could, word and edge wise, but yeah, mostly this is just like a Don Quixote monologue. When the whole Dorotea, Lucinda Cardino, Don Fernando thing goes on and it becomes clear that Dorotea is not Princess of Comic Con, Sancho's only thought is, well, no peninsula for Sancho.

Enjoy another episode of our newest show-within-a-show! We're reading Edith Grossman's translation of Don Quixote by Miguel de Cervantes a few chapters at a time. Some Patreon supporters get these episodes monthly, but every two months we'll combine them for general consumption.

These episodes cover Chapters 28-42.

In Episode 5, Don Quixote rejoins the party. and everyone decides to shack up in the only inn/castle in all of Spain. Secondary characters step into the spotlight with their own stories, including a novel-within-a-novel called The Man Who Was Recklessly Curious.

In Episode 6, Don Quixote takes the backseat for a few more chapters. We have to close the book on Cardenio's Crew, finish the story of the Two Friends, and meet a few more ancillary characters who just love this inn.
