About this Event
For May's book club, we will be reading and discussing two graphic novels: Uzumaki by Junji Ito and Beneath the Trees Where Nobody Sees by Patrick Horvath.
Publisher's description for Uzumaki:
Kurouzu-cho, a small fogbound town on the coast of Japan, is cursed. According to Shuichi Saito, the withdrawn boyfriend of teenager Kirie Goshima, their town is haunted not by a person or being but a pattern: UZUMAKI, the spiral—the hypnotic secret shape of the world. The bizarre masterpiece horror manga is now available all in a single volume. Fall into a whirlpool of terror!
Publisher's description for Beneath the Trees Where Nobody Sees:
For Samantha Strong, this isn’t just advice, it’s survival. She’s Woodbrook’s most reliable shop owner, its warmest smile, and beneath all that fur…its most efficient serial killer. The big city beyond the evergreens has more than enough prey; Sam just wants her tranquil life, her tidy storefront, and the comforting lull of cedar branches and apple-pie breezes.
But tranquility shatters when a fellow Woodbrook resident turns up savaged by an unknown hand. Suddenly the gossip swirls, panic rises, and Sheriff Patterson is on the prowl, too close for comfort.
Sam knows one thing: if someone else is killing in her woods, they’re not just a threat to her routine. They’re a threat to everything she’s built. And she’ll do whatever it takes to uncover the truth before Woodbrook tears itself apart.
This month, we will meet at Stanley Beer Hall. All are welcome to join us, whether you finish the book or not. Hope to see you there!
