I'm not entirely sure why I enjoyed this little article in the NYTimes so much, except that both interviewer and subject seemed to be playing with expectations a great deal in the process of it. Certainly it brushes both against our very modern world and a lot of nearly lost traditions (mostly involving wealth, travel, hand-made suits and the idle class).
At any rate, it amused me. And it's a quick read. But I don't necessarily know that it would amuse anyone else.
