About this Event

Bin Rat Book Club 5!


This time we'll be reading Sayaka Murata's Convenience Store Woman!

Keiko has never fit in; not with her family, and certainly not at school. But at age 18, when she starts working at the Hiiromachi branch of 'Smile Mart', she finally finds purpose and contentment in her life. There, she understands the rules of social interaction, and does her best to emulate the ideal "normal" person. Mounting pressure from her family and coworkers to find a proper career and start a family, however, forces her to take drastic action.
