I finally got around to purchasing a copy of Don Quixote. I was excited to read it as I enjoy the classics; however, I stopped at about 150 pages. To me, the character Don Quixote was insufferable. The fact that he’s convinced himself that he is the hero despite causing so much damage and suffering to those around him is infuriating. To me, he is just a delusional, blithering idiot, and it was enough to turn me off from the book. I enjoyed the adventure theme and was fond of the sidekick, Sancho. I’ve been told it’s a redemption story and gets better. Should I give it another shot or move on?
