Book Club: BUTTER (Wed, 1/15)
Date: Wednesday, January 15, 2025
Time: 7:00-8:30 pm EST
Details: Start 2025 on a productive note and join us for the first JETAANY Book Club meeting of the year. We'll be talking about the cult international bestseller Butter, by Asako Yuzuki. Inspired by the real case of a convicted con woman and serial killer, Butter is a vivid, unsettling exploration of misogyny, obsession, romance and the transgressive pleasures of food in Japan. (Heads up: at the moment, you can get the Kindle version for $1.99.)
RSVP: Register for Zoom Link and check for updates on the Facebook Event.

About JETAANY Book Club
The JETAANY Book Club is open to anyone with an interest in Japan and a love of reading. Past selections have included Japanese classics, contemporary fiction, non-fiction, YA and graphic novels, from Japanese, Japanese American and non-Japanese authors. The common thread is JAPAN! Please join us for a casual, nonjudgmental discussion with JET alum and friends. While we used meet in person over pizza, we'll be gathering virtually for the time being. Feel free to eat and drink during the meeting. Joining late is OK, too!
