You’re smiling. But you must know yourself, since you are a literary person, that the work of fiction is always a form of recovery of the past, even if that past has to be falsified to seem real. The act of recalling the past in what we write doesn’t mean knowing the way it really was, but rather becoming the master of memories as they burn in the perilous instant of creation.
