Synopsis

He dreamed of knighthood in a world that no longer believed in it.

Don Quixote is a literary masterpiece that follows the misadventures of a deluded Spanish nobleman who, inspired by tales of knights and honor, sets out to revive chivalry—accompanied by his faithful squire, Sancho Panza. With windmills as giants and inns as castles, the line between reality and imagination blurs into a deeply human and hilariously tragic quest.

Written by Miguel de Cervantes in the 17th century, this novel revolutionized storytelling with its groundbreaking blend of satire, pathos, humor, and metafiction. As relevant today as it was 400 years ago, Don Quixote explores themes of idealism, delusion, friendship, and the search for purpose.

This edition includes annotations, historical insights, and classic illustrations that bring the story and its significance to life for modern readers.

"The best novel ever written." — Harold Bloom
"A profound work of art that mocks and honors its genre all at once." — The New York Times Book Review

    Do your job or move along already. Trouble is, I'm in too deep to do either one. 
    A year into Samantha True’s forensic photography classes she knows three things: 
    1.   Crime scenes are messy.  
    2.   Especially when you throw up on them. 
    3.   She may not be cut out for this. 
    When the police drag her to an investigation, she’s just as baffled by the scene. With clues like superhero masks, disco balls, and Bigfoot, are they ever going to find who did it?  
    As she digs deeper into the photographic evidence, she realizes her small town is full of secrets. And she might be happier staying in the dark.  
    A laugh-out-loud mystery that will keep you guessing and quickly turning the pages. One Hit Wonder offers the just right reader escape, but fair warning, this book leaves readers wanting more.

    Lauren Weedman's hilarious essays are like a compendium of what not to do as a fully-realized, functional adult. Her self-deprecating, confessional, and terribly funny voice finds a special place in the hearts of those who can relate to her—which, for better or worse, includes all of us. From the uproarious account of her time at the Daily Show, where she developed an entirely one-sided infatuation with Jon Stewart, to the time she read her boyfriend's diary with disastrous results, Lauren's work is filled with the wit, honesty, and personality that make for great personal writing.

    La femme. Le mari. L'enfant. Le chat. Le petit dejeuner. Le journal. L'auteur. La festival du filme. La critique. L'agent. Le mort. La naissance.
    A novel starring Jean-Luc Godard.
    It's Edinburgh Film Festival 2020 and critic Victor Eaves meets filmmaker Jean-Luc Godard in a novel blending mad vulgarity with slingshot satire. French Toast is a family farce and cinematic adventure starring a giant of the silver screen.
    "This is the story of my encounter with the venerable French-Swiss film director Jean-Luc Godard. In 2020, when he was 90 years old, Godard was invited to Edinburgh to speak at the Film Festival and I was chosen to meet him, as I was the only journalist in the city who both spoke French and had seen any of his films."
    VICTOR EAVES
    "Burnett's latest novel is both a scabrous satire and a rollicking caper, and comes stuffed with big ideas, memorable set pieces, clever in-jokes and caustic asides. Buried within the mayhem lurk shrewd insights into artistic judgment."
    THE HERALD
    "Peter Burnett is not in the business of fuelling hubris. He is concerned with questions about meaning, value and the nature of authenticity."

    Art. The greatest standard bearer of what the human condition really is?  Or Emperor’s Clothes, cheap gimmicks displayed as all-knowing? 
    When it comes to writing we have our favourite authors.  But what of the authors themselves. What are they keen to write of? 
    For our classic authors; from Poe to Lovecraft, from Woolf to Fitzgerald art in their words, is something to be admired.  From many angles, many views, their stories, their characters interact with art and the consequences fall as they may.
