My Adventures With, and Without, the Knight of the Mournful Countenance, His Grace, Don Quixote, as told by Sancho Panza, Ex-Squire
(2026)A novel by Curt Leviant
Award-winning author Curt Leviant delivers a joyful reimagining of the classic tale of Don Quixote through the eyes of his long-overlooked sidekick, Sancho Panza
In a dusty old second-hand bookshop in a side street in Sevilla, an unnamed narrator discovers a 1751 edition of Don Quixote—one that is narrated, most unusually, by Sancho Panza. With Curt Leviant’s signature whimsy, this audaciously titled novel reimagines Cervantes’s classic tale through Sancho's eyes, as he and the Don revisit the sites of their former adventures, embark on new ones, and finally go their separate ways when Sancho sets out to write an epic tale of his own, accompanied by a playfully-out-of-place hero from Arthurian romances, Sir Gawain.
Rich with literary history and yet utterly original, My Adventures With, and Without, the Knight of the Mournful Countenance, His Grace, Don Quixote, as told by Sancho Panza, Ex-Squire is a reader’s romp from the first page.
