Retracing one’s steps through the corridors of memory, searching for particular moments or times, is rarely a simple task. More often, it proves impossible to do so by will alone; instead, we must wait for ‘madeleine moments,’ when the sensorial textures of daily life unearth what has long been concealed. It is within forgotten yet familiar scents, tastes, sounds, and places that such moments rise again.
