Now what?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A newly published novel translated by Transylvania\nUniversity professor Veronica Dean-Thacker picks up where Miguel de Cervantes\nleft off in the early 1600s with the &#8220;Second Part of the Ingenious Knight\nDon Quixote of La Mancha.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/1588713415\/ref=x_gr_w_bb_sout?ie=UTF8&amp;tag=x_gr_w_bb_sout-20&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325&amp;creativeASIN=1588713415&amp;SubscriptionId=1MGPYB6YW3HWK55XCGG2\">Upon\nthe Death of Don Quixote<\/a>,&#8221; originally written in Spanish by renowned\nwriter <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Andr%C3%A9s_Trapiello\">Andr\u00e9s\nTrapiello<\/a>, imagines what happens after the demise of one of the most\nwell-known characters in all of literature \u2014 How does the family cope with Don\nQuixote&#8217;s passing? Is his hometown going to be turned into a shrine? What&#8217;s the\ndeal with his housekeeper being in love with him for years without anybody\nknowing about it?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Trapiello really weaves this marvelous tale about all\nthat,&#8221; Dean-Thacker said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Juan de la Cuesta &#8211; Hispanic Monographs last month released\nThacker&#8217;s translation of Trapiello&#8217;s book, originally published in 2004 in time\nfor the 400th anniversary of Part 1 of Cervantes&#8217; masterpiece.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It all started for the Spanish professor when she was visiting\nLe\u00f3n; Trapiello&#8217;s brother Pedro gave her a copy of &#8220;Upon the Death of Don\nQuixote&#8221; and said, &#8220;You really need to read this.&#8221; <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;When I read it, I thought it&#8217;s too bad the\nEnglish-speaking world doesn&#8217;t have access to this story,&#8221; Dean-Thacker\nsaid. &#8220;I was almost sickened at the end when I thought all my family and\nfriends are never going to be able to read this \u2014 unless I do something.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Trapiello was inspired to continue Cervantes&#8217; story because the\nother characters were sort of &#8220;left in the dust\u201d with the protagonist\u2019s\ndeath, she said. &#8220;There are so many lessons from Don Quixote&#8217;s life that\nare reflected in these characters.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As for Cervantes&#8217; original, Dean-Thacker called it &#8220;such\na compelling novel, and so much of literature that has been written since\nreflects what&#8217;s in that story in one way or another.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.transy.edu\/humanities\/faculty\/dr-veronica-dean-thacker\">Dean-Thacker<\/a>\nis translating another Trapiello novel, a sequel to &#8220;Upon the Death of Don\nQuixote&#8221;
