Book Club: "Vanishing World" by Sayaka Murata 𝘝𝘒𝘯π˜ͺ𝘴𝘩π˜ͺ𝘯𝘨 𝘞𝘰𝘳𝘭π˜₯ by Sayaka Murata
In a speculative Japan where sex is taboo and reproduction occurs artificially, themes of love, family, and societal norms are explored through the eyes of a woman who is an anomaly because she was conceived through intercourse.

NCMA W-S Book Club
This spring, Book Club is 𝘧𝘰𝘢𝘯π˜₯ π˜ͺ𝘯 𝘡𝘳𝘒𝘯𝘴𝘭𝘒𝘡π˜ͺ𝘰𝘯, exploring foreign landscapes both internal and external in search of the feelings and realizations that make us human. The book selections, all originally published in languages other than English, introduce us to characters and cultures different from those that occupy much of American and British literature. What do we gain when such stories are brought into English? How is our understanding of the world – and ourselves – affected by stories from other countries? Join us for what might be our most ambitious set of novels yet.
Book Club is going offsite this season. This discussion will take place downstairs at Lot 63 (614 S Main St. Winston-Salem, NC 27101).
