22. The Ingenious Gentleman Don Quixote of La Mancha by Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra


This is one of my favorite stories. Don Quixote is the story of a Spanish gentleman from the La Mancha region of Spain by the name of Alonso Quixano, who has retired from working life. He has spent so much time reading about the age of knights and chivalry since then that he has apparently gone mad. The story is a telling of his adventures, his highs, his lows, and eventually the inevitable, and is considered one of the finest Spanish literary works of all time.
