But, in truth, people and stories came to me scattershot, and I found myself constantly circling back to reevaluate some fact that I’d been told before. I piled up puzzle pieces and then sifted through them, seeking connections, and then set out to pile up some more.
- Юрий Белкановfez uma citaçãohá 5 anosHe’d had good parents, after all. But something about his name being listed as “unknown” on the certificate seemed to haunt him. “She could have put down any name,” he told the relative. “But she put ‘unknown.’ ” Years later, the relative would remember the discovery as the moment when something changed. “I have always felt that was a main driving point in his life. He needed to be someone, be known.”
