Then there's the obvious parallels between Miller's obsession with Julie Mao and Don Quixote's [[TheDulcineaEffect obsession with Dulcinea]].[[note]]The book also extends this to Holden, who gets a WhatTheHellHero from Naomi because he can't distinguish love from desire, but the show hasn't gone into this.[[/note]]
