Competition #4: Tell us what sight, smell or taste takes you back in time…?

Posted on 24 Jul 2013

This week’s poem is ‘A Navy Skirt’, by Thomas McCarthy, in which, like Proust’s famous madeleines, the sight of a skirt on the floor takes the poet back in time.
So to win this week’s prize – a one year subscription to Ireland’s Poetry Review magazine – tell us what sight, smell or taste takes you back in time.
