Life Of Cervantes, The

This book presents the extraordinary case of a man that did not find himself until fifty-five. The events throughout the book have a certain classic quality, a certain relationship between their outwardness and their inwardness, a certain concrete reality, that show an existence before they passed through the crucible of the author's transmuting power, for their previous existence in literature was as vivid to him as if it had been in life.
