Inspired by the classic Don Quixote by Miguel de Cervantes, Quichotte tells the story of an ageing travelling salesman obsessed with TV. At times unable to separate reality from fantasy, he falls in love with a TV star and sets off on a quest across America to win her hand. Quichotte is one of the world's great storytellers at his exuberant best, in a book that highlights the instability of the world we live in and speaks to an era when fact is often indiscernible from fiction.
