Siri Hustvedt on family, sex and art

In this lively interview series from the RSA, Matthew Taylor, puts a range of practitioners on the spot - from scholars to business leaders, politicians to journalists - by asking for big ideas to help build effective bridges to our new future.This week Matthew is joined by the American writer, Siri Hustvedt, described as “a 21st-century Virginia Woolf”, to discuss family dynamics, Western misogyny and its links to Greek culture - and what sex can teach us about learning to appreciate great art. Siri Hustvedt is a novelist and essayist. Her latest collection of essays is: 'Mothers, Fathers, and Others'. A Tempo & Talker production for the RSA.  In this time of global change, strong communities and initiatives that bring people together are more invaluable than ever before.
