Abstract
Because she had to fly to California, I missed Susan Cooper on my first trip to the Boston area to interview authors in 1988. I had better luck the following year, fortunately, although the weather was predictably hot and humid since it was early July. After the drive up from New York City, her house in Cambridge was a cool and restful oasis. Even so, it seemed a world away from the rocky Cornish coast, the wintry Buckinghamshire village, and the wild Welsh mountains in which is set her series “The Dark Is Rising.”
