“There are many ways to compare memory to water. We’re carried on its slipstream. It has deceptive undercurrents and tricks of refraction. But mostly, the image it reflects is shifting. The places and images that are caught in our personal lore take on mythic qualitie that transform them. Memory, intoxicated with desire, tells us about what we need things to represent, as opposed to how they are.”
