Robert Macfarlane vs Juan Villoro
Robert Macfarlane treats time as a geological force, carving valleys of experience that persist beyond memory. Juan Villoro counters with the idea that time is a story told by everyday moments, each anecdote reshaping the present. Their paraphrased conversation blends the deep patience of earth with the immediacy of narrative, suggesting that observing time involves feeling both the slow erosion and the rapid pulse of lived events.
