James Marriott in Conversation with Dominic Sandbrook: The Dawn of the Post-Literate Society

Union Chapel

Time7pm
DateTue 16 Jun

Times columnist James Marriott joins historian Dominic Sandbrook for an enlightening discussion centred on Marriott's debut book, The New Dark Ages: The End of Reading and the Dawn of a Post-Literate Society. The conversation examines how a shift away from the printed page is reshaping our minds, our culture and our collective future in response to the transformative impact of social media and smartphones on reading habits. The discussion explores whether society is sleepwalking into a new cultural era and what it means when communities no longer prioritise deep reading. Tickets are 35 pounds per person, or 45 pounds including a hardback copy of the book.
