Delve into Cervantes' legacy with this essential set.
In an effort to commemorate underappreciated authors, particularly Miguel de Cervantes, known for the first modern novel, I designed a set of three books comprising of Galatea, Don Quixote, and The Trials of Persiles and Sigismunda. These novels represent significant milestones in Cervantes's career, from his early work to his magnum opus and final major novel. The dust jacket flaps of each book offer insights into their importance and Cervantes's life during the time of their writing. Through this project, I refined my skills in balancing creativity and commercial appeal, while also preserving cultural and literary heritage by presenting obscure works to wider audiences, serving both aesthetic and informational purposes.
