SUMMARY:Six Walks: In the Footsteps of Henry David Thoreau
DESCRIPTION:Illustrated talk by Ben Shattuck\nTime: Sunday\, July 31\, 2022 @ 4:00 – 5:00 P.M.\nPlace: In-Person at the Museum\, 2nd Floor \nBook signing to follow. \nNOTE: DUE TO LIMITED SEATING\, IF YOU ARE PLANNING TO ATTEND “IN-PERSON” PLEASE RESERVE YOUR SEAT FOR THIS PROGRAM BY CALLING (631) 788-7239 OR EMAILING THE MUSEUM. \nOn an autumn morning in 1849\, Henry David Thoreau stepped out his front door to walk the beaches of Cape Cod. Over a century and a half later\, Ben Shattuck does the same. With little more than a loaf of bread\, brick of cheese\, and a notebook\, Shattuck sets out to retrace Thoreau’s path through the Cape’s outer beaches\, from the elbow to Provincetown’s fingertip.\nABOUT SIX WALKS \nNamed a Must Read Book of Spring 2022 by Town & Country Magazine and a Most Anticipated Book of the Year at The Rumpus. This is the first of six journeys taken by Shattuck\, each one inspired by a walk once taken by Henry David Thoreau. After the Cape\, Shattuck goes up Mount Katahdin and Mount Wachusett\, down the coastline of his hometown\, and then through the Allagash. Along the way\, Shattuck encounters unexpected characters\, landscapes\, and stories\, seeing for himself the restorative effects that walking can have on a dampened spirit. Over years of following Thoreau\, Shattuck finds himself uncovering new insights about family\, love\, friendship\, and fatherhood\, and understanding more deeply the lessons walking can offer through life’s changing seasons. \nIntimate\, entertaining\, and beautifully crafted\, Six Walks is a resounding tribute to the ways walking in nature can inspire us all. \n  \nDate: Sunday\, July 31\, 2022.\nTime: 4:00 p.m.\nLocation: Museum\, 2nd Floor.\nFor virtual access\, no advance registration is required. \nPlease click the link below to join the webinar:\nhttps://us02web.zoom.us/j/81777199197 \nWebinar ID: 817 7719 9197\nInternational numbers available: https://us02web.zoom.us/u/kccta2rImC \nABOUT BEN SHATTUCK \nBen Shattuck\, a graduate of the Iowa Writers’ Workshop\, is a recipient of a PEN America Story Prize and a 2019 Pushcart Prize.
