John Irving At Home | TIME
/ timemagazine
"I see that ending and I write toward it; it's kind of waiting on me." -John Irving, on composing the last sentence of each novel first.
We heard him dickhead
Yes, we know, it was in the piece.
He also wrote it in a Q&A at the back of some editions of his books
I just like the part where he's writing on camera. I love to see a writer writing.
We writers are a weird bunch.
@@stevenlloyd1403 Yes, we are. Otherwise, we couldn't write such interesting fiction.
@@mackfarlainethebarenakedau5113 So true, so true. What do you write?
@@stevenlloyd1403 I can't say much about it yet, only to say it's a non-secular novel in an ever-secular world.
@@mackfarlainethebarenakedau5113 Nice.
Loved the house. So warm and comforting to write in that space.
It belongs to his wife.
Just learned of his dyslexia in his recent -all too short-memoir about his early life. I really love this guy. What a life lived thus far!
"A writer's office". I was finally able to see the landscape and scene of such a study in the United States and foreign countries. Thank you for uploading this video.
Like you, I am a Japanese writer. Every day, I repeat the same routine activities on the slopes, but each day is definitely different from God. I'm still watching this video while writing one piece. I haven't decided on a title yet, but it will be when I finish writing it. The "Writer's Study" series uploaded by Japanese people is really rare. Japan is probably not suited for such artist activities. So I thank God that I met you here for the first time.
Thank you very much for your continued support.
Please continue this series.
I sincerely apologize for the long post.
Writing by hand is such an aesthetic, pleasing way to write a novel. Way more than working on a computer or even typewriter could be.
His storys are so lovely weird and unreal, but I believe every single word he writes.
Would love more movies about writers such as John Irving and their lives.
Real talk from a real writer.
Please, someone give this man a Nobel Prize in Literature.
I concur
Never read anything by the man, but there's some...gravitas???...that John Irving has that makes me assume I'd be in awe of his work. I guess I need to someday find out.
Many of his novels have been made in to films
"My contribution to the environment" HAHAHAHAHAHA GOLD
Somewhere I recall George Will calling the urge to write “a metabolic need”.
Love the last scene. A writer in his element.
Hi John, If you see this, thanks for sharing your day with Time----gave me an emotional connection to my beloved brother, Jake. Hope you are well.
OMG that house! I'm in love 💘
Me: ''Can I have a John Irving.''
Mom: ''No we already have a John Irving at home.''
John Irving at home:
So refreshing to witness humility in this bombastic climate.
The house that Garp built. Always nice to hear one of my favorite writers talk abut writing. Can't believe he writes them out in longhand! Blows my mind.......you'd think the carpal tunnel would have set in by now. Many more years to you, John! Thanks for all the humor and empathy in your fantastic work.
That house is on an island in lake huron. His wife's father won it in a poker game.
@Nautilus1972 that's annoying. It's presented like it's his house but it's his wife's house. He didn't go out and get it.
@@ellie-tk4jy What a strange comment. Why does it matter to you how a random couple you don't know came about their house or who it belongs to?
I remember reading The Prayer for Owen Meany by John Irving about thirty years ago
and enjoyed it. It was funny, sad and very quiky like most of his books. I read The world according to Garp that was an odd book full of strange
characters. He's definitely an original and great writer.
I really like his work. I've read everything by him except "Hotel New Hampshire" yet...I'm saving it for a day I really want to be uplifted.
I like you as a man and you have inspired me to write just like you do by hand.
This video is soo well made has a slow breezy feel love itt
Thank you
I'm going to try out starting at the end too.
I love this.
Nicely done.
Great video. The music caught my attention.
Mi escritor favorito :D
The World According to Garp. It's still the best and will blow your mind.
Yes
Couldn't have said it better myself.
Sounds like a very content man.
hero
Great.
☆☆☆☆☆
Pretty Informative & inspirational video!!! 🙏 💡 📌🥊🔥
I don't know what it was but there was something there something important
Hi sir you are great.
What is the background music at the beginning?
sounds really relaxing :)
i just want to have a conversation with this man
I know it would be almost impossible, but I would love to see an At Home with J.M. Coetzee.
I too like to write by hand, but there are days arthritis keeps me from doing that,, but thats when I type what has been written, and finish what ever I am working on by typing. Then the next day write the remainder that I typed, this way I have a hard copy as well as an online back up copy.
I write by hand too. I have anxiety, and I feel writing by hand is more therapeutic that way for me.
Interesting person
Mr. Irving sold this house in 2016. He now lives in Toronto with his wife.
Song?
Does anyone know what it is he is fixing in the kitchen to eat? That kinda looked good!
Porridge and Banana I think. My grandfather has the same every mourning.
One author, if I could only meet one author. C. McCarthy? Too stiff. T. Wolfe? Too stuffy. John Irving? John Irving! Human, accessible, thoughtful yet not preachy. Oh, to have one day in Vermont, drinking Mountain Dew and looking at the Greens with Mr. Irving.
Maybe some mozzarella spiedini on the side...
Yes, Chris. That's the ticket! Unfortunately, Mr. Irving will not be living in Vermont for much longer. Google John Irving's house for salee for some interesting photos and sale price of the home in this video.
Thanks a lot!
What kind of pens does he write with? I’m very curious because I am a huge pen collector.
I believe it is a Pentel EnerGel Deluxe capped pen @1:21 or a variant of it.
Quite often I use the Pentel RTX energel, which is retractable with a .5 mm needle tip (7mm also) and it writes beautifully at an affordable price. Good luck in your search James.
Kann ich ihn noch heiaraten?
Long hand??! 😮😮😮😮😮😮ouch
ISpy a 20 peso Filipino bill. Mr. Irving, what’s up with that?
Many words but not one I can set in ink...
His house is way too big.
Big family.
It's presented like it's his house but it's his wife's house. He didn't go out and get it.
It's a family house. When you're in a couple you're not always going to precise whose money bought it or who inherited it. Imagine if a husband whose wife didn't have a job and raised their kids would repeat "it's my house".
I would think this celebrated successful writer could afford this home
