Pico Iyer on Finding Stillness in What Remains
Manage episode 460917881 series 3595125
Pico Iyer is my guest today. In today’s episode, we discuss the need for silence and stillness in our distracted age, the metaphor of fire as both destruction and renewal, and writing as a process of discovery and attention. And we talk about his new book Aflame, which is about his thirty years visiting a Benedictine hermitage in Big Sur, California.
Just a note to mention that we recorded this conversation back in December, about a month before the current wildfires in and around Los Angeles County. Our thoughts are with everyone affected by these events.
