5.0
This masterpiece is composed of incredibly humorous and satirical lyric poetry, with surprisingly modern and simple lines. You don’t need to be an avid reader or posses a background in literature to thoroughly enjoy this piece of art.
I cannot stress enough how funny Don Juan is. I’ve highlighted numerous lines and written annotations so I can come back to them. As someone who’s not into poetry, I can honestly say this 17-canto epic poem is one of the greatest pieces of writing I’ve ever read.
