The Infernal Quixote is a novel written by Charles Lucas and was first published in 1801. This book is divided into two volumes, with volumes three and four comprising the second volume. The story is set in the late 18th century and follows the adventures of a young man named Augustus Fitzroy, who is a member of the aristocracy.Augustus is described as a dreamer who is obsessed with chivalry and the romantic ideals of the past. He is also a bit of a troublemaker, and his antics often get him into trouble with his family and society. The novel follows Augustus as he embarks on a journey to find his true identity and purpose in life.The story is a parody of Miguel de Cervantes' famous novel Don Quixote, and it incorporates elements of the Gothic genre as well. The novel is known for its satirical tone and its commentary on the social and political issues of the time.The Infernal Quixote is a complex and multi-layered novel that explores themes of identity, class, and the nature of reality. It is a fascinating read for anyone interested in 18th-century literature, Gothic fiction, or satire.In Four Volumes.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
