My guest this week is author and podcast host Sutanya Dacres. Sutanya’s podcast “Dinner for one” has been featured in The New York Times and the BBC Radio Hour, and she has just released her first book, “Dinner For One: How Cooking in Paris Saved Me.”

Sutanya’s memoir is an honest look into what happened when her world fell apart and she found herself alone, divorced, in her 30s, in a foreign land. Through her generous, open and insightful writing, we feel her fall in love, we hear her heart break, and we watch her pick herself up and start again. And what’s that? That’s the scent of culinary salvation.

In a lively and candid conversation, Sutanya discusses vulnerability, cultural differences, dating after divorce, and so much more. Then, she treats us to a reading from “Dinner For One: How Cooking in Paris Saved Me.”

About Us
Since well before Victor Hugo looked up at Notre Dame and thought, "Huh... what if a hunchback lived in there?" authors have been inspired by Paris. The Storytime in Paris podcast will help keep this tradition alive with short interviews and readings from your favorite contemporary authors with a French connection.
 
Every episode will feature five questions, asked by you, our authors' biggest fans, and answered live on air. Then, our authors will treat us to a reading of an excerpt from their book. Who knows? Maybe you'll even be inspired to write your own Great French Novel. Happy listening!
