Epiphanies














In Search of Lost Time, Marcel Proust's a narrator dips a cake into his tea.  When he sips, the crumbs blended with the warmth of the fluid transport him into an altered state.  He's filled with pleasure and joy that dissolve his former feelings of mediocrity and mortality.

Creative Write: Consider how to use the sense of smell and taste in your writing.  How would you combine the details in sensory imagery with warmth and texture to describe a state of mind?
