"Lively, irreverent, taking no hostages . . . Johnson comes across in this rapid-fire exchange with all the vibrancy he had for decades in auditoriums or on camera. For those who knew the architect, curator, bon vivant, the man is present on every page as he was in every moment in life; for those who didn't the verve with which Johnson had his finger both on the pulse, and in the pie, of architectural, cultural, and business decisions of New York from the 1930s to the 1980s is astounding. Both his unfortunate politics in the 1930s and his later studied apoliticism could not be clearer." --Barry Bergdoll, The Philip Johnson Chief Curator of Architecture and Design, Museum of Modern Art "Philip Johnson and Robert Stern have few rivals in the history of talking about architecture. Rarely cloistering himself to commit his ideas to paper, Johnson spent a lifetime in dialogue with the world around him. Stern's recordings of his conversations with Johnson are a brilliant sampler of what was an almost daily fact of Johnson's life: an unending round of back-and-forth between himself and those that he found interesting to spend time with. The shadings and nuances revealed by such an extended conversation tell us more about Johnson's thinking--as well as Stern's--than any single author could ever do." --Terence Riley, Director, Miami Art Museum, "Lively, irreverent, taking no hostages . . .

Synopsis
Debate and banter between the irascible Philip Johnson and the equally articulate and opinionated Robert A. M. Stern generates a provocative combination of astute commentary and personal observation on the state of architecture in the twentieth century. Philip Johnson's multifaceted career as an architect, curator, and collector extended from the early 1920s to his death in 2005. Captivated by the work of the European modernists Gropius, Le Corbusier, and Mies van der Rohe, Johnson assembled the seminal exhibition Modern Architecture--International Exhibition at the Museum of Modern Art in 1932. Among his most notable achievements are the famous Glass House in Connecticut, designed for his own use, and the Seagram Building in New York, in association with Mies van der Rohe. Recognized as the dean of American architecture, Johnson had a profound influence on the next generation of architects, including Robert A. M. Stern. Stern has conducted a series of ten interviews with Johnson, each covering a decade of his life, that provide an illuminating assessment of a significant period of American architecture., Debate and banter between the irascible Philip Johnson and the equally articulate and opinionated Robert A.

    Shipping was quick, packaging was excellent, condition was acceptable as described -- binding loose but pages intact. I did message buyer asking about mold and didn't receive a reply -- luckily, there appears to be no mold. Great value for a 100+ yr old book!

    I received my book in absolutely pristine condition, better than described! Which is impressive because the copy is from 1930 and it looks like it has never been handled. It shipped very quickly, even faster than the estimated time given by a week. It was packaged very carefully. The book and shipping price was also very fair considering the age and condition of the book and the shipping speed. I am very pleased with this seller and will be ordering from them again in the future.

    I am always a little nervous when ordering books off of eBay but this seller has provided me with an EXCELLENT purchasing experience! The packaging was superior and I am grateful because this is a signed first edition and we all know how the post office can be at times. The Shipping was timely and the item actually arrived quicker than expected. The item EXCEEDED the description. It is stunning. I have dropped it off at my antiquarian for authors signature verification but the value is high.
