Following on from its pioneering launch of a new hybrid event format capable of adapting to all Government guidelines, EA Festival s forward-looking approach is clear in every aspect of its inaugural festival. The world-class line-up of this brand-new festival in East Anglia involves talks and panel discussions that interrogate the future of everything from meat-eating and sustainability to fashion, sex and the English language.
Daisy Buchanan, author of Insatiable and How to be a Grown-Up, and Rowan Pelling, founder of The Amorist and former editor of The Erotic Review, will compare notes on how we talk about sex. Tackling the scandalous and the passionless, they ll explore the ongoing impact of social media and technology on dating and what it means for the future of loving. Renowned lexicographer, Susie Dent will also be on hand to share her observations about how language has changed in recent years and her predictions about how future generations will use English.
