April Leichhardt Book Club
16th Apr @ Berkelouw Leichhardt
The Berkelouw Leichhardt Book Club 2025 Season is now in full swing!
This month we'll be reading The Vegetarian by 2024 Nobel Prize in Literature winner Han Kang (translated by Deborah Smith)!
Yeong-hye and her husband are ordinary people. He is an office worker with moderate ambitions and mild manners; she is an uninspired but dutiful wife. The acceptable flatline of their marriage is interrupted when Yeong-hye, seeking a more 'plant-like' existence, decides to become a vegetarian, prompted by grotesque recurring nightmares. Fraught, disturbing and beautiful, The Vegetarian is a novel about modern day South Korea, but also a novel about shame, desire and our faltering attempts to understand others, from one imprisoned body to another.
Join us on April 16th at 6pm to discuss what sounds to be a very intense book.
