Hanging Out in Steinbeck's House
I know the way to San Jose; I was born there. I also know
the way from San Jose to Steinbeck Country, where I lived as a teenager.
Join me as I hang out in the house where John Steinbeck grew up, tell the staff there a few things about the Steinbeck family pictures, experience the Steinbeck Center, walk through the scenes featured in East of Eden, check out the Steinbeck Library, and spend a little time in Cannery Row.
Etched in stones are Steinbeck quotes, like “Books are the best friends you can have: they inform you, and entertain you, and they don’t talk back” and “I nearly always write—just as I nearly always breathe.”
It’s all a part of my continuing California book tour travel story being published in serial form by Atticus Books.
