Of course, I remember absolutely nothing else about it.
My parents are long gone, so I can't really ask them.
And being a fiction writer, I think about this a lot.
And having just read a memoir, I think of this a lot.
I never really know, sure, what is memory and what is fiction.
It's a very thin line, as you and I both know.
So for years, I also had a pennant, what they call like a flag, a pennant, sort of triangle-shaped thing hanging on my wall, felt one, from when we visited that time.
So maybe I just imagined that memory from looking at that for most of my childhood on a wall.
I don't really know anymore, but that's my oldest memory.
I can still see, and when I go by it, I still get hit with that really strong deja vu, and I still see it every once in a while.
Who were these parents of yours?
What were their names, and how did they meet?
My father was Carl, Carl, and my mother was Corky, Barbara, but I already called her Corky, C-O-R-K-Y.
Fine.
Carl Coburn.
Yes.
And who was he?
Well, Carl, first of all, he was Cohen, which probably doesn't surprise too many people.
We changed the name because Cohen was so common where they were.
This is before I was born.
