I never did manage to "read" cervantes. always got about halfway. But i did get it completed on an audiobook.
I always felt Don Quixote represented society's attitude toward ideals like honour, justice, equality, etc; Basically, you have to be crazy to truly believe such nonsense.
Gordon manages to extend this metaphor. Our more "progressive" society does lip service to some of the afore mentioned ideals, but only really cares about the appearance of such.
As with circle of steel, Gordon does a fantastic job of highlighting the contradictions and hypocrisy of humankind.
