[The Persiles] could be thought to stand in the same relation to the Quixote as The Winter's Tale stands to Measure for Measure. . . . The present version really offers the Persiles for the first time in proper English dress. The translators have delicately balanced the formalities of its chronological age with the friskiness of its spirit: the finished version is just as much fun to read as it obviously was to make. A fine display of fireworks. --Robert M. Adams, The New Republic
