product description:
More popular in their day than Don Quxixote, Cervantes s
Exemplary Stories (1613) surprise, challenge and delight. Ranging from the picaresque to the satirical, the

This new translation captures the full vigor of Cervantes s wit and make available two rarely printed gems, "The Illustrious Kitchen Maid" and "The Power of Blood."
