March’s Arroyo Book Club Book….
The Arroyo Book Club will be reading Please Look After Mom by Kyung-Sook Shin for our March meeting. The book, a Man Asian Literary Prize winner, is describe on Amazon’s website as follows:
“When sixty-nine-year-old So-nyo is separated from her husband among the crowds of the Seoul subway station, her family begins a desperate search to find her. Yet as long-held secrets and private sorrows begin to reveal themselves, they are forced to wonder: how well did they actually know the woman they called Mom?
Told through the piercing voices and urgent perspectives of a daughter, son, husband, and mother, Please Look After Mom is at once an authentic picture of contemporary life in Korea and a universal story of family love.”
Stop by the library for a copy of the book and join us for discussion on March 26 at 3:00.
