We Are Someone's Dream: Guests Talk on The Circular Ruins by Jorge Luis Borges

How much can we dream? What does creation mean? Can *we* be someone else's dream? Join me for a Guests Talk roundtable on The Circular Ruins by Jorge Luis Borges. Let's get this story undone!

"The goal that led him on was not impossible, though it was clearly supernatural: he wanted to dream a man." This is the premise of another mind-blowing, reality-bending short-story by Jorge Luis Borges: The Circular Ruins.

Join me in a Guests Talk with a dream cast of guests: Jarrod (from The Fantasy Thinker), Kris (from A Fictional Escapist), P.L. Stuart (author of A Drowned Kingdom Saga), Jose (from José's Fantasy Worlds), and Dr Philip Chase (author of The Edan Trilogy).
