  • Episode 44 - Convenience Store Woman by Sayaka Murata
    2024/09/17

    For this episode, we read Convenience Store Woman by Sayaka Murata. John Powers of NPR said, “One pleasure of this book is her detailed portrait of how such a place [a convenience store] actually works. Yet the book's true brilliance lies in Murata's way of subverting our expectations. It's not simply that Keiko finds liberation, even happiness, by becoming a cog in the capitalist machine, an unsettling idea when you think about it. Murata also makes us see how the family members who find her love of the store's rituals strange are themselves trapped within a set of rules - dress this way, don't talk like that, get married and have kids. But unlike her, they—and maybe we—don't know it.” Korey says, “There is a lot of overlap of ideas and themes in all three of the things of hers that we’ve read.” Ashley says, “Yes, it’s like she’s trying to get something across… a point.” Tune in to our latest episode now! 🧠 🍙
