John talks with Vincent Woods, Irish poet, playwright and broadcaster, about formative experiences of Johns childhood, the influence and enduring lessons of his father, and his memoir, First Quarter. They discuss how the village streets, rural houses and landscapes shaped Johns approach to architecture, the parallels between shaping space and shaping language or memory, and explore ideas of place, feeling, and the promise and possibility of youth.
This conversation was recorded in Dublin in front of a small audience in July 2024.
