#17 Sayaka Murata’s: Convenience Store Woman
from Shared Pages · host sharedpagespodcast
For our final book of the year, Ronnie picked Sayaka Murata's: Convenience Store Woman. A novel about a Keiko, a neurodivergent woman who only wants to fit in with society and to keep working at the convenience store she is employed at. However, societal pressures from coworkers, bosses, friends, and family force her to make changes she isn't ready for. This book is an interesting way to look at society and see how its foundations treat people that don't fit the traditional mold. Next month's book is The Ballad of Black Tom by Victor LaValle! Be sure to read along with us over at Twitter.Com/SharedPagesPod! We'll see you in the new year!
