“So I lived in France. After the meal, we would have cheese for dessert. That was a common dessert. And when I was in the country, outside of Paris in the Dijon area, dessert was pears and cheese. That was like, oh, the best dessert to be paired with the venison that we had. So of course the French are very keen on pairing their desserts and their wine with their meal. And it's all like this beautiful dance. And that's part of the culture and having a two hour lunch during the workday, as part of the culture that I experienced there, which is quite lovely. “
In the "Myth, Imagined Past, and Cultural Purity in Fiction (Build Better Worlds, 2 of 4)" episode, Beth Barany, host of the How To Write the Future podcast, further explores the book Build Better Worlds by Michael Kilman and Kyra Wellstrom. She discusses the importance of considering various cultural viewpoints, delving into taboos, and challenging commonly accepted narratives to create comprehensive and powerful fictional cultures.
