Hello and welcome to Intelligence Squared, where great minds meet.
I'm head of programming, Connor Boyle.
Our guest on the podcast today is Olivia Lang.
The acclaimed writer and critic is the author of seven books distilling challenging topics that should be difficult to wrap beautiful writing around.
Their latest book is the garden against Time, work that initially grew out of documenting the restoration of a walled garden in Suffolk into a wider exploration that considers what it means to cultivate a personal paradise.
