I try to trace the connection between the characters and that way a story or plot emerges.
“A jacket commemorating the Germans as champions of the 1990 World Cup is out of date two weeks after the event has passed.”
“Meanwhile the fact that the connection with the activity of memory in ordinary life is for the moment lost is of less importance than the reverse, namely, that this connection with the complications and fluctuations of life is necessarily still a too close one.”
