Years later, I would learn of a writer named John Gardner who referred to this as the "fictive dream," or the "dream of fiction," and I would realize that this was where I was inside that book, spending time with the characters and the world that the author had created and invited me into.
Alguns anos depois, conheci um autor chamado John Gardner que se referia a isto como  o "sonho fictício," ou o "sonho de ficção," e eu apercebi-me de que aquilo era onde eu estava dentro daquele livro, a passar o tempo com as personagens e com o mundo que o autor criara e onde me convidara a entrar.
