About This Book
A traveling account records a weeklong pilgrimage through locations associated with a celebrated novelist, blending on-site descriptions of towns, marshes, and houses with local history, quotations and personal recollections of the author. The narrator revisits many sites across seasons to verify impressions, notes weather and landscape, identifies scenes and characters mentioned in the novels, and offers biographical anecdotes and newly published letters. Richly illustrated and compiled from original sources and conversations with residents and custodians, the narrative alternates practical travel notes, literary associations, and archival material to guide readers through the places that inspired the writer's fiction.
