The antidote against Memory Treachery “What you end up remembering isn't always the same as what you have witnessed.” - Tony Webster, The Sense of An Ending (by Julian Barnes) Our memory is unreliable, fluid, and changeable. It can trick and deceive us. This is the main idea Barnes explores in his Booker Prize winning novel and a reality I’m slowly coming to grips with. I always thought my memory was infallible, but I’m beginning to realize that not only is my memory like a sieve, I am also susceptible to making “sly cuts” and adjustments to my life story.
