Helen is one of the first authors in the world who has a setting from one of their books in the Metaverse. The Foremothers Café is a Virtual Reality world inspired by Hanna’s café from her novel, Sour Milk in Sheep’s Wool. Readers can read the book, then travel back in time to Lund, Sweden, and enter one of its major settings.
Helen’s books take you back to the activism and debates of the early reproductive rights, suffrage, and abolitionist movements of the 19th and 20th century.
She is especially inspired by people who had the courage to challenge the beliefs they were raised to accept, thus breaking the cycle of racism, sexism, and injustice.

Virtual World based on Sour Milk in Shep's Wool

Dear all,
I've created a virtual cafe based on one of the settings in Sour Milk in Sheep's Wool and set in Lund, Sweden, circa 1918.
This is a virtual place you can visit, walk around in and see and here how life was at the turn of the 20th century.
All you need is an Oculus Quest (best experience) or a an Altspace app on your computer. (A very nice experience, and free, but not as immersive.)

Helen Erwin answered History Reader's question: Can anyone go into the café in the Metaverse? I would love to see it. I loved Sour Milk in Sheep's Wool. What platform is it on? Dear History Reader, Thank you! That's very nice to hear. Yes, The Foremothers Cafe is a public space and open to everyone. It's on Altspace now, but as you might know, Altspace is shutting down and I'll be moving to a different platform soon. Please c See Full Answer
