About this book

Don Juan is a satirical poem inspired by the Spanish libertine, who's known for his romantic trysts, frequent adventures and salacious activities throughout the land. George Gordon reinvents the character, by subverting expectations and changing the narrative.

The character of Don Juan has an infamous legacy tied to his relations with women. According to Gordon, his exploits began as a teenager when he engaged in an extramarital affair with a 23-year-old woman. When the pair are discovered, Juan is exiled and forced to travel abroad. This leads to many adventures, where he finds himself in one peculiar situation after another. Despite the obstacles, Juan is never too far from a woman's love and affection.

With Don Juan, George Gordon delivers a vibrant and entertaining take on a literary classic. He infuses humor into a series of hapless tales taking the reader on a nonstop adventure. It's an enduring legend that's been adapted and reimagined for hundreds of years.

With an eye-catching new cover, and professionally typeset manuscript, this edition of Don Juan is both modern and readable.
