"IS"
What is real depends on what the meaning of “is” is. If Coca-Cola is the “real thing” is Pepsi unreal? If meat is “real food for real people” are Twinkies not real? Is Sherlock Holmes real, and if not, why do people send him letters even today? In these conversations, the befuddled author, haunted by the characters he created, confronts the problem of what is real and what is imaginary. In conversations alternating between his psychiatrist and his wife, he probes the murkiness of reality and comes to an ambiguous conclusion.
