Don Quixote: The Jacqui's Room Notes


Don Quixote read too much.
Thought he was a knight.
Grabbed his squire, Sancho Panza
And set off to fight.






Declared his love for Dulcinea,
Fought giants in her name.
Got mocked, pinched, butted, robbed and kidnapped.
She shunned him all the same.






Stayed deluded 1,000 pages,
Ended up beaten and bleeding.
Realized he'd been mad, then died.
Such are the perils of reading.

Week of May 26 -- Don Quixote

In which it begins with the book voted "The Greatest Book of All Time" by the Nobel Institute.

What was I thinking? I can barely lift this book! Chapter LXXIV? Run away! Run away!

Welcome to our first week! Discussion of Don Quixote (or whatever you are reading) will take place in the comments area of this post.

I put my list in order and made a calendar so if your lists overlap, we can journey together. It's to the left, below the iguana.

Hey! Who knew this was where Sancho Panza was from?

Have fun.
