While it’s considered a great work, other’s have had another view. The guardian reports Despite its genius, author Martin Amis found it unpalatable and, according to the Guardian, wrote that "While clearly an impregnable masterpiece, 'Don Quixote' suffers from one fairly serious flaw — that of outright unreadability. … The book bristles with beauties, charm, sublime comedy; it is also, for long stretches, approaching about 75% of the whole, inhumanly dull."
