A ‘Quixotic’ project of Instituto Cervantes

This year marks the fourth centennial of the publication of the second volume of Don Quixote de La Mancha, and Instituto Cervantes is celebrating the milestone with a series of events, which kicks off on April 23.

The Spanish cultural center is in search of 500 book-loving volunteers to take part in a “quixotic” endeavor: to hand-write Cervantes’ novel. Each volunteer will have two minutes to write a few sentences of the novel by hand. The writing-chain will start at 4 p.m. and conclude at 11 p.m.
