Notes:
- I read this short book 84, Charing Cross Road in order to not leave the July slot in my reading record empty (and, of course, because it is highly recommended). In May I started reading Don Quixote and the accompanying assigned reading in Roberto González EchevarrĂa's lecture course Cervantes' Don Quixote. However, concomitantly over the last few months, my non-reading activities have increased substantially, and thus my Don Quixote related reading progress has been very slow. Last month's entry on The Song of Roland has some other notes associated with Don Quixote.
