Synesthesia is a literary device that involves combining sensations from different senses to create a vivid and emotional experience in the reader’s mind.
Instead of merely describing a sensory experience with common words, sensory terms are metaphorically merged to produce a more intense and evocative image.
For example, “a scream of color,” where the senses of hearing and sight are fused to convey a unique and striking sensation. Synesthesia enriches poetry and prose by offering a language that is sensorially powerful and original.
