If you just want more in the same vein, you could read its spiritual sire, Gargantua & Pantagruel.
It's got more characters but that just makes it a bit more of a traveling circus, and it's full of tomfoolery and absurdity joined with its ratiocinating counter-balance.

I would also say Rabbit, Run and Rabbit Redux share at least kindred spirit with Don Quixote, even if they are told from a darker and more realistic perspective of the fool who accomplishes nothing
