Summary: Tune in to Episode Twelve of the Esotouric podcast as we visit, yet again, with Julie Rivett, Dashiell Hammett's granddaughter, about the Flintcraft Parable in the Maltese Falcon, a piercing mediation on the sublime and the banal which co-exist at the core of human nature. We’ll also visit with Kevin Bash, architectural historian and council member for the City of Norco, about the rise, fall and strange fate of the astonishing Norconian Supreme Resort, Southern California's forgotten jewel of the Jazz Age. All this, plus cultural musings on the Clark Hotel’s proposed summer re-opening, the Welsh Congregational Church returned to Sinai Temple, Southern California Edison’s online photo collection at The Huntington and our upcoming Literary Salon on Dashiell Hammett as Kim & Richard usher in the week of April 8th, 2013.
