The Poetics of Space by Gaston Bachelard
How—with no preparation—can this singular, short-lived event constituted by the appearance of an unusual poetic image, react on other minds and in other hearts, despite all the barriers of common sense, all the disciplined schools of thought, content in their immobility? (part II of introduction)
…space contains compressed time. That is what space is for. (pg 8)
