Dunking Proust

August 31, 2012

One afternoon in 1909 Marcel Proust dipped a biscuit into his tea. A small gesture, which triggered off a detailed recollection of past events and childhood memories. He put it all down in A La Recherche du Temps Perdu. Sometimes making a sudden connection between the similar or the disparate illuminates the memory.

What is that brings your memories flooding back?

Have a curious day.
