I too was a Don Quixote fan before knowing of the song. When my parents and I lived in Central America, I acquired a wood carving of Don Quixote and became very fascinated with the character. I read the book when I was in the 7th grade just because I was interested in learning more about the character Cervantes created - not that I can remember all the details of the book these many years later. I really should pull it out and read it again. I also love the musical, Man Of La Mancha.
DQ, thanks for sharing your thoughts on a topic that I still find most interesting.
