John Irving at Home

From what I understand John Irving no longer lives in the beautiful Vermont home in which this video was filmed, but there is much more to this video than its setting.  In addition to the tour, the author offers insights into his writing technique (longhand, both sides of the page) and his wish to die at his desk doing what he loves best.

Irving continues to fascinate readers, and I post this three-year old video in honor of the recent publication of his fourteenth novel, Avenue of Mysteries.
