We DO love talking to John Irving.  In our winding, wandering and wonderful conversation we cover it all from his newest, Queen Esther, the art of writing backwards, skiing in Vienna and the eccentricities of bike pump usage.  If this description doesn’t entice you to listen, we don’t know what will. John Irving is one of the most masterful writers of our time.  Sit down with us for our third conversation with him to find out what motivates his work and makes him tick.
