Most artists do not reenact life but make metaphors for aspects of experience .
大多数艺术家并不是完全复现生活,而是根据现实经验最生活做隐喻性的表现。
Memories like these reenact themselves in my mind now as we drive through the city , and for a moment I imagine I 've returned to baghdad the way a ghost might haunt the world it once inhabited .
