Dans une Espagne rurale et tranquille, un gentilhomme passionné de romans de chevalerie perd peu à peu le sens des réalités… et se rêve en chevalier errant. Armé d'une vieille armure, juché sur un maigre cheval nommé Rossinante, Don Quichotte part à l'aventure, prêt à défendre les opprimés, affronter les géants — qui ne sont que de simples moulins — et conquérir le cœur de sa dame imaginaire, Dulcinée du Toboso. À ses côtés, Sancho Panza, son fidèle écuyer paysan, le costume entre espoir, bon sens et naïveté.

There's a moment before the mountains go quiet—when words feel full of meaning, and a stranger's voice almost changes something. Almost. In this still, delicate story, ambition rises gently and vanishes just as softly. The path is steep, the dreams sincere, the end—unspoken, but known.

The Golden Honeymoon is a story about the road, a long marriage, old memories, and the kind of conversation that's been going on for fifty years — and shows no sign of stopping.

Told in the voice of a man who always has something to say — and a wife who's heard every word — this Ring Lardner classic is funny, plainspoken, and sharper than it first lets on. A story about what's left unsaid when you've already said everything else.
