This review is from: Don Quijote De La Mancha (Spanish Edition) (Hardcover)

A great combination is this new release of Don Quijote de la Mancha with 38 illustrations dated 1945 by Salvador Dalí. This book was originally published in the US by Double Day in 1946. There was a special edition by the Argentinian publisher EMECE in 1957 and reprinted in Argentina in 1965. In 1979, the US publisher made a new reprint. The Gala Salvador Dalí Foundation made a special facsimile edition with 43 illustrations (5 new sketches that have only been published in the catalog of the Museu Teatre Dalí). It was a limited edition (unrepeatable) of only 998 copies of 370mm x 370mm. It started at 4,500€ and it seems that it costs now about 8,000€. Editorial Planeta published a new edition, in a smaller size, but perfectly bounded with hard slip cover that you are going to like.

Very nice book! Elegant presentation. This version is easy to understand because it provides many footnotes that guide modern readers to the culture of Spain in the 1500's. I'm having a great time reading it!
