Interesting, Curious and a tad odd

Revisado: 09-09-03

I was supposed to read Don Quixote as a literature assignment somewhere in my junior high/high school years. I avoided it then and now think it may have been one of my better ideas. Still I gave it three stars, it is well written and the reader of this version does a very fine job. The associations of different voices and indeed characteristics mated with each individual are excellent.
The horse is absolutely the sane one, Sancho has brief periods of lucent behavior (mostly born of human greed). It was an escape from reality for sure, and that makes it entertaining. I am glad to have experienced the tale and shared the adventures. Overall, I did enjoy it.

Informative, educational but not entertaining

Revisado: 07-15-03

The many tangents of this 'biography' were quite enlightening. The people contributing to the discoveries, the proof, the dis-proofs were fasinating. The politics alone made for interesting reading and insight I had not previously imaged. I had also hoped for the book to be entertaining but that was not to be. Certainly it had not promised that but still I was disappointed somehow. If one goes into this text with little understanding of physics and math structure, one will probably not derive too much from it. Conversely, if one possesses a fair understanding of these concepts, the text will fall short. That is the nature of the beast I suspect. Still, I would recommend it and suggest one expect only a little and be pleasantly uplifted.

You can not go wrong with this one

From the moment we started out in 'Orleans' and everywhere Charles went, he took me right along. My only regret is the trip passed way too fast. Actually had more fun then a few trips I've experienced first hand.
