“Once, I was a master at recycling leftovers. Now I cultivate the art of simmering memories.” - Jean-Dominique Bauby
Jean-Dominique Bauby quote from The Diving Bell and the Butterfly. Bauby was a French journalist, author and editor who suffered a massive stroke in 1995 that left him with locked-in syndrome - a rare neurological condition that left his mind clear and alert but his body completely paralyzed. He could not move a muscle except for his left eyelid.
Memories - be they good or bad - they have a hotness to them.
Makes them very suitable for simmering.
I wonder how Anna and David in POSSIBLE DREAM simmer their memories? What about the other characters?
