Reading As I Crossed a Bridge of Dreams | Alexandria
Read As I Crossed a Bridge of Dreams by Lady Sarashina. Floating through 11th century Japan, Lady Sarashina's dreamlike diary transcends time to reveal how fantasy shapes reality. Her radical insight - that imagination creates meaning rather than escaping it - challenges our dismissal of daydreams. By embracing the power of reverie, she suggests, we access deeper truths than cold rationality allows.
