Description

How much of our identity is performance for others? What happens when someone refuses the script? Join Elizabeth Finelli, an engaging and enthusiastic Mensan English teacher, for a discussion of 2024 Literature Nobel Prize Winner Han Kang's The Vegetarian. Whether or not you have read the book, you will examine and analyze excerpts, and engage in a lively collaborative discussion of themes such as: bodily autonomy vs social control, violence embedded within normalized systems, patriarchy and female objectification, and sanity vs nonconformity. Literature is the art of words, and it provides us a platform through which we can discuss the issues that matter to us as members of society. At this Read-It-Or-Not book club, you will craft and share your opinions with new friends who value the same, inspired by Nobel prize winning literature, and guided by an excellent teacher. Read it while traveling to the AG! Book = 185 pages. Audiobook = 5 hr 13 min.
