"Literature in many of its branches is no other than the shadow of good talk; but the imitator falls far short of the original in life, freedom and effect...Talk is fluid, tentative, continually in 'further search and progress' while written words remain fixed, become idols even to the writer, found wooden dogmatisms"
(RLS, "Talk and Talkers: I", in Memories and Portraits, The Works of Robert Louis Stevenson, Swanston edn, vol ix [London: Chatto and Windus, 1911], p. 81)
The More... section of the RLS Website holds information about museums and libraries with Stevenson holdings, as well as links to other relevant sites, and pages.
Here, the RLS Website is also serialising Jeremy Hodges' insightful new biography of Robert Louis Stevenson - Lamplit, Vicious Fairy Land.
