Welcome to Intelligence Squared, where great minds meet. I'm senior producer Mia Sorenti. What does it mean to be lonely in a world that has never been more connected? In this episode we return for part two of our recent live event with writer and critic Olivia Lang. Lang joined us recently at Union Chapel to discuss loneliness, intimacy,
and the search for connection. They are in conversation with writer and critic Charlie Porter. If you haven't heard part one, we recommend jumping back an episode to catch up. But now let's return to the conversation live at Union Chapel in London. Can you think back to the time when the book came out?
How how did it how did it feel in the run-up? Like how did you feel about it? How did you feel about talking to people about it? Like what was it like? I think it's really hard to remember that.
