Recover lost time by force. Nostalgia is a means to stabilizing ephemera

I'll say, your collected posts have more literary value stored up in them on the subject of memory and nostalgia than Ishiguro's entire output, and you should know given that you live in the same country.

Perhaps nostalgia is so powerful because it reminds us of a time when we were prime movers in our own history and it attacks us so powerfully when we are at our most listless. I go outside to read because I feel this aimlessness too, but it always comes back.
