Join Dana Schwartz and Vanessa Zoltan for a pilgrimage next August in rural Cornwall, England! This small group of pilgrims will explore Daphne du Maurier’s Rebecca together with intention and care. Each day, we will have a morning discussion about our theme, viewing it through a passage of the text. We will engage in sacred reading practices while reflecting on the text and our own lives. On this trip, we will walk up to twelve miles a day through beautiful countryside. Using the landscape as a source of inspiration, we will spend our days walking, reading, and joining in conversation about this novel.
Rebecca is a novel about memory and ghosts — the ghosts that linger in physical spaces and beyond. On this pilgrimage, we will explore how our memories shape the stories we tell ourselves today, and what ghosts from our past we carry with us. We will connect these themes, along with the other themes in the book, to conversations in our own lives, asking ourselves questions like: how do our histories inform our present? What power can we find in our preoccupations, or how do those preoccupations limit us? What conscious and unconscious narratives do we play into as we embark upon new chapters of our lives?
We’ll meet near the Plymouth train station on the early afternoon of the 9th and then travel to the riverside country estate where we’ll stay for the remainder of our time together. Each day, we will make space for writing, reflection, reading, silence, ancient reading practices and of course, walking.
