Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra (1547–1616) is a classic author whose works are in the public domain.

Cervantes' mad knight tilting at windmills is not merely comic—it's a devastating critique of how ideology blinds us to reality, wrapped in a story so entertaining that readers miss the tragedy lurking beneath the laughs. Four centuries later, this novel remains the funniest deconstruction of delusion ever written.

A gentleman so lost in tales of chivalry that he mistakes windmills for giants and innkeepers for nobility, Cervantes' masterpiece brilliantly deconstructs the very legends it parodies while creating an unforgettably human portrait of delusion and idealism.
