6. my story…. To: Stefan Schutt Subject: DAVID NETHANEL Date: Tue, 29 July 1997 22:14:08 There is little else I can say than DAVID NETHANEL 67 xxxxx Street Bat Yam, Israel tel: xxxxxxxxx He is at home only in the evenings! I have had a long conversation with him. I still have goose pimples as I write to you. To think that I have no phone number for you, no idea where you are tonight! There is absolutely no doubt - he IS the right person. He is over the moon that you searched for him, even more that we found him. He will, obviously, tell you details himself, but I wanted you to know at this stage that he had asked mutual friends (?family?) of your mother's to find you two , and failed. They had searched in Germany, had no idea about Australia. He has seen you as a baby, even has some photographs of you. It is amazing that he has been in England for a while in 1960. I am almost certain that we met at that time. When you sent his picture I was certain that I knew the face - but I often get this feeling. He has a daughter of 18, is divorced (?seperated?) from his wife. Apart from the fact that you searched for him, I have told him nothing about you - I have little doubt you will do this yourself I wish I could have phoned you! David
35. more roads and nodes…. The important thing is the creation of the links between the nodes How you see the node (or photo, or piece of writing, or sound) will depend on how you have approached it, on the context your journey has created for it . Jonathon Potter (1996); Representing Reality: Discourse, Rhetoric and Social Construction ” Truth can be treated as a commodity which is worked up, can fluctuate, and can be strengthened or weakened by various procedures of representation. "(p5) "Histories cannot be produced without drawing on the techniques of narrative and character construction which are so developed in the fictional domain" (p94)
