Inspired by the Cervantes classic, Sam DuChamp, mediocre writer of spy thrillers, creates
Quichotte, a courtly, addled salesman obsessed with television who falls in impossible love
with a TV star. Together with his (imaginary) son Sancho, Quichotte sets off on a picaresque quest across America to prove worthy of her hand, gallantly braving the tragicomic perils of
an age where “Anything can Happen”. Meanwhile, his creator, gripped in a midlife crisis, has
equally urgent challenges of his own.
