Though they were born almost 50 years apart and never met each other, they share something in common, which Steinbeck wrote about in a charming short story titled, “When Edith McGullicuddy Met Robert Louis Stevenson.” In this two-day class we will read the story and discuss the Monterey settings where both writers spent their time and their literary talents. Marcy will also provide a guide to the several literary “shrines” in Northern California—most of them a day-trip away—where you can go to pay homage to your favorite writers. Course materials furnished.
