Which is to love.\" In this visionary world, Don Quixote journeys through American history to the final days of the Nixon administration, passing on the way through a New York reminiscent of prerevolutionary St. Petersburg and a brutally defamiliarized contemporary London. Here transvestites who might play at being Nazis and beautiful she-males enact the rituals of courtly love. Presiding overt this late-twentieth-century Levithian is Thomas Hobbes--the Angel of Death. -- Back cover.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"ICA Bookstore","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58464526729600,"sku":null,"price":30.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0012\/4390\/6109\/files\/WhatsAppImage2026-08-18at11.06.18.jpg?v=1787047609","url":"https:\/\/shop.ica.art\/products\/kathy-acker-don-quixote","provider":"ICA Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
