The author, William Egginton, is a literary critic and philosopher. In this book, he sets out how Cervantes came to create what we now call fiction, and how fiction changed the world. Egginton explores Cervantes's life and the world he lived in, showing how his influences converged in his work, and how his work - especially Don Quixote - radically changed the nature of literature and created a new way of viewing the world. There is a handwritten name and date on the first page (see photo)
