The Wanderings of Persiles and Sigismunda: A Northern Story by Cervantes Saavedra
"The Wanderings of Persiles and Sigismunda: A Northern Story" by Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra is a Byzantine romance novel completed in 1616, just three days before his death. Unlike his famous "Don Quixote," this work embraces the fantastic over the commonplace. Cervantes considered it his greatest achievement. The novel follows heroes traveling under the names Periandro and Auristela, whose true identities may harbor deeper historical and religious significance. It was published posthumously
in 1617. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
