I'd like to meet:
Pat Conroy The Prince of Tides
"There. That Taste. That's the taste of my childhood". I would say, "Breathe deeply", and you will breathe and remember that smell for the rest of your life, the bold, fecund aroma of the tidal marsh, exquisite and sensual, the smell of the South in heat, a smell like new milk, semen, and spilled wine, all perfumed with seawater. My soul grazes like a lamb on the beauty of indrawn tides.TO ALL THAT ATTENDED CORAL SHORES HIGH SCHOOL:
