"Miguel de Cervantes's Don Quixote, published in two parts in 1605 and 1615, is a fictional masterpiece that helped to guide the development of the novel. Its energy is built on a joint emphasis on the story of the self-made knight errant and the story of the composition of the text itself. Humor, irony, and ingenuity mark every stage of the knight's progress. QUIXOTIC HAIKU borrows the haiku, a Japanese verse form known for its brevity, ..."

ISBN-13: 978-1-58871-309-4, ISBN: 1-58871-309-1
