The festival celebrates the transformative power of words and the imagination with a city-wide conversation with thinkers, readers, and writers through a menu of events, during which St Lucia will be transformed into a cultural hub of activity. The Eat Your Words Festival 2014 wants participants to “eat their words”—chew them over, appreciate them, and consider how they work as the bread and butter of the writing craft. Our words are our meal ticket, and in the Eat Your Words Festival, we are going to celebrate them.
