All literary characters and objects live on possible worlds. They're real in some sense. Sherlock exists. Hamlet exists. Gandalf exists.

I'm sure any practicing philosopher is familiar with David Lewis, but amongst educated and philosophically-inclined non-philosophers, he gets nowhere near the attention of someone like Chomsky, or even Putnam or Kripke or Fodor. If he was Jewish, then amongst Analytic philosophers, he would probably be regarded as second only to Wittgenstein and Godel.

Anyone read Lewis here? Should I start with "Counterfactuals" or "On the Plurality of Worlds"?
