William Trevor wrote a wonderful short story called "After Rain". In the end of the story, the protagonist experienced a moment of clarity. Where that revelation lead the protagonist to we never knew, because the story end abruptly, but ever since reading that story, I became sensitive to the quality of air and light after rain. From Trevor's writing I realized what a powerful writer could do. Though I had forgot the story line, the atmosphere of the story stayed with me forever.
