Don Quixote (Heritage Press edition), illustrated by Edy Legrand, is a visually stunning interpretation of Miguel de Cervantes’ 1605 masterpiece, blending the French artist’s modernist sensibility with the novel’s timeless absurdity and pathos. This edition showcases Legrand’s vibrant color lithographs—their flattened perspectives and bold, almost Fauvist palette (ochre deserts, cobalt skies) reimagining La Mancha as a dreamlike stage for Quixote’s delusions. The knight’s elongated figure tilts at windmills rendered as geometric monstrosities, while Sancho Panza’s earthy realism emerges through textured crosshatching that seems lifted from Renaissance woodcuts.
