Mine is “palimpsest”. I first encountered this word while reading The Secret History by Donna Tartt.
Definition: a manuscript or piece of writing material on which the original writing has been effaced to make room for later writing but of which traces remain.
I love that there’s a word for this.
Florid; as in, “Wilde’s florid prose…”
I don’t know why but it’s stuck in my mind since.
