Pico Iyer joins me on the podcast again. And this time we’re discussing his new book The Half Known Life: In Search of Paradise.
As the subtitle reveals, The Half Known Life is a book about the idea of paradise. But it is also a book about living in the real world and embracing the unknown, topics that Pico and I chat about in today’s podcast.
We also talk briefly about Reading, Writing, Buddhism, Peter Matthiessen, Cal Flyn, and more.
