Los metaf|¤sicos de Tl o« n no buscan la verdad ni siquiera la verosimilitud: buscan el asombro. Juzgan que la metaf|¤sica es una rama de la literatura fanta¤  stica. The metaphysicians of Tlo«  n do not seek for the truth or even for verisimilitude, but rather for the astounding. They judge that metaphysics is a branch of fantastic literature.
