"The History of Don Quixote, Volume 2, Part 40" by Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra is a witty story set in the Spanish Golden Age about a nobleman lost in his knightly dreams. The story sees Don Quixote and his sidekick, Sancho Panza, thinking about giving up their adventures and trying a peaceful life, while the mischievous Duke and Duchess play tricks on them for their own fun, which leads to comical encounters, including the made-up drama of Altisidora. The story juggles what's real and what's not, all while making fun of old-fashioned knight stories with a mix of funny situations and serious thoughts from the characters.
