I Didn't Break the Lamp - Historical Accounts of Imaginary Acquaintances (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781948280136)

"When I was little, I didn't have an imaginary friend, I had an imaginary bully. She was a little girl of my age, who looked just like me, and took great delight in being cruel. This included doing things to make my parents furious, like punching my little brother. One day, when I was about thirteen, Ludwig showed up and wrapped all two hundred of his copper-bladed arms around this evil version of me. There was a warm light, like a camera flash made of lava, and then she was gone."-- Sam Fleming, "Ludwig"Are they in our imagination, or are we in theirs?
