📚 Rosa Book Club – Summer Edition: Feminist Readings #3
"The Vegetarian" by Han Kang 🌿
We’re back with the third session of our Feminist Readings series and this time, we’re diving into The Vegetarian by Korean author Han Kang, a haunting and thought-provoking novel that raises questions about autonomy, resistance, and the societal control of bodies.
🗓 Date: Thursday, July 24th
🕕 Time: 6:00 PM
📍 Location: Rosa Garden
In line with our ongoing commitment to critical thinking and feminist perspectives, The Vegetarian offers a powerful reflection on how personal choices -even seemingly simple ones like refusing to eat meat - can become acts of rebellion in deeply patriarchal and conformist societies.
Come share your thoughts, listen to others, and enjoy an open discussion in a welcoming setting. Whether you’ve read the book cover to cover or just skimmed a few pages, you're very welcome to join.
📖 About the book:
Yeong-hye’s quiet decision to stop eating meat soon turns into a radical act that disrupts her family and challenges the norms of her world. With lyrical prose and unsettling imagery, Han Kang explores themes of control, freedom, and the human desire to break free.
🧃As always, we'll provide drinks and snacks to keep the conversation flowing.
