Don Quixote

I could not but help putting this picture up (source: 3rd house journal).

[Don Quijote among the loros and pájaros in his jardin]

...and also quote this very insightful comment on Don Quixote that sums up the character that Cervantes created so well:

(Cervantes) gave us a character who is completely unthinkable as a living being, and yet one who, once you have engaged with him, takes up a permanent residence within you.
