Gaiman's own story, The Thing About Cassandra also dissolves the boundaries between real and imagined life. It's read by Josh Hamilton—whose stage credits include Proof and The Coast of Utopia, and whose television credits (almost de rigueur for SHORTS readers) include Law and Order. Hamilton is making his Shorts debut with this reading.
