This book is about Don Quishot's adventures. The stories of legendary knights still remained very read during the time that Cervantes wrote Don Kisot. Such stories idealized the rider who killed dragons, monsters, and countless enemy armies.
“Macbeth” Shakespeare
Kadare has been thrilled by Shakespeare and especially the tragedy of Macbeth. MacBeth is one of Shakespeare's tragedies that depict the bloody power struggle in Scotland during the 20th century. MacBeth is a general in the king's army, and one day all of a sudden he faces a witch. The witch predicts his fate and tells him that one day he would become king but that she did not know where.
“Blow dead” Nikolai Gogol
The book was written in 1842, and it began with a letter that Pushkin sent to Gog, saying that he had to write a novel about Don Kisotin in Russian style. Mentality, guilt, justification, Russian morality is the key to this work.
