Award-winning author, playwright, and art dealer Steve Hauk brings his fascinating new book, “Steinbeck: The Untold Stories,” to the Carmel Woman’s Club Monday, Oct. 15 at 2 p.m. The public is invited. Included in the presentation will be screening of the book’s dramatic illustrations by artist C. Kline along with narration of selected excerpts by noted KAZU radio host Lisa Ledin. Hauk will reveal previously unknown incidents in Steinbeck’s life wherein hostility against the famous author for what he was writing became so pronounced he feared for his personal safety and obtained a permit to carry a gun. In describing Hauk’s book the prestigious Steinbeck Review wrote recently it “enters the world of artistic endeavor with the power to move and captivate readers for all time.” Immediately following the program will be a coffee/tea reception. Members, free; guests $10, includes reception. The Carmel Woman’s Club is located at 9th & San Carlos. (831)624-2866 or 915-8184
