Don Quixote

The Indonesian writer Goenawan Mohamad has translated his interpretation of the character of the witty squire Don Quixote into a series of nineteen vivid poems. The lyrical miniatures of the adventures were created between 2007 and 2010. Goenawan Mohamad unfolds the world of Don Quijote in different linguistic forms, just as he sees it with his eyes. The reader accompanies Don Quixote on his way through La Mancha, marvels at his love for Dulcinea and, together with Sancho Panza, fears for the bold Don Quixote when he fights against his adversaries.

Translated from the Indonesian by Sabine Müller
