Don Quixote has all the things that a knight needs, but except he's not a knight. He hasn't actually been knighted or made made into a knight. And as he knows from the books, if you were going to challenge other knights and go and do cool stuff, you do need to be a knight first.
Welcome to 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 1-14.
In Episode 1, we do some table-setting on the author and translation, and then we dive into the first four chapters of the story. In Episode 2, our hero recruits the squire Sancho Panza and goes tilting after some windmills. Also we hear a whole story about a guy who died from lovesickness.
Join us as we meet this errant knight-errant!
