Writing and rememberingIt’s impossible to say a thing exactly the way it was, because what you say can never be exact, you always have to leave something out, there are too many parts, sides, cross currents, nuances, too many gestures, which could mean this or that, too many shapes which can never fully be described, too many flavours in the air or on the tongue, half-colours, too many.
