To Sail Beyond the Sunset

It is the last of the "Lazarus Long" cycle of stories, involving time travel, parallel dimensions, free love, voluntary incest, and a concept that Heinlein named pantheistic solipsism, or World as Myth — the theory that universes are created by the act of imagining them, so that somewhere (for example) the Land of Oz is real.
