Well, for the last dream of a dying young man it was pretty heartwarming at times. Or Was It a Dream? The Don Quixote references strewn throughout the book were pretty obvious, with Cam as Don Quick-Shot, Gonzo as Sancho Panza, and Rocinante and Dulcinea weren't hidden at all. Thing is: Dulcinea was even in the Don Quixote book's narrative a fictional figure. Quixote saw one girl and in his mind he made her this ideal princess for whom he had all these adventures that weren't really there either. Dulcie was modeled after some random woman Cameron saw, and elevated to this indescribably and impossibly perfect and beautiful creature. She is reluctant to tell him her purpose because his mind doesn't want to accept the fate that's coming. Combine that with the few, short moments where he (barely) registers his hospital surroundings and you got yourself a nice, big "Yes, it was definitely All Just a Dream."

Hello, all, I'm fairly new to TV Tropes, a friend got me to sign up and just in browsing some of the tropes, I fear my sudden death due to laughter. So, I figured I'd post a forum topic talking about Going Bovine. I've recently read the book a couple of times (3-4, perhaps) and am still finding interesting things. As a teenager, the message of the book is really nice. I'm no social recluse, but hey. If anybody has inturpetations of parts of the book, feel free to post them here.
