This book is a unique scholarly attempt to examine Don Quixote from multiple angles to see how the re-accentuation of the world’s greatest literary hero takes place in film, theatre, and literature. To accomplish this task, eighteen scholars from the USA, Canada, Spain, and Great Britain have come together, and each of them has brought his/her unique perspective to the subject. For the first time, Don Quixote is discussed from the point of re-accentuation, i.e. having in mind one of the key Bakhtinian concepts that will serve as a theoretical framework. A primary objective was therefore to articulate, relying on the concept of re-accentuation, that the history of the novel has benefited enormously from the re-accentuation of Don Quixote helping us to shape countless iconic novels from the eighteenth century, and to see how Cervantes’s title character has been reinterpreted to suit the needs of a variety of cultures across time and space.

Images of Chicago, its people, its mysteries, its stories and the extraordinary influence these stories have had on Fitzpatrick's life. He gives us fantasy and fact, great architectural landmarks and obscure neighbourhood bars and his own great heroes, real or imagined. Chicago is a city of sports legends and wild politics, but it is also a city of real, everyday people, people who have made Chicago into Fitzpatrick's Bombay. His work is informed by wide reading, an astounding imagination, a vast inventory of memorabilia and a great love of the Windy City.
