Oliver Sacks Quote
My brother immediately confirmed the first bombing incident, saying, I remember it exactly as you described it. But regarding the second bombing, he said, You never saw it. You weren’t there. I was staggered at Michael’s words. How could he dispute a memory I would not hesitate to swear on in a court of law and had never doubted as real? What do you mean? I objected. I can see it all in my mind’s eye now, Pa with his pump, and Marcus and David with their buckets of water. How could I see it so clearly if I wasn’t there? You never saw it, Michael repeated. We were both away at Braefield at the time.
