Be My Guest

Online event

The dinner table, among friends, is where the best conversations take place – about the world, religion, politics, culture, love and cooking. Be My Guest is a conversation about all these things, mediated through the sharing of food.
We live in a world where some have too much and others not enough, where migrants and refugees are both welcomed and vilified, and where most of us spend less and less time cooking and eating together.

Be My Guest explores the meaning and limits of hospitality across countries and cultures and invites us to realise that we have more that unites us than divides us. 

​With a cultural identity that bridges England, India, Kenya and Germany, and as the co-founder of Authors for Peace, these are issues novelist and essay writer Priya Basil has been considering for most of her life.

​The discussion will be chaired by broadcaster, writer and film-maker Bidisha

​Running time: 60 minutes
