Convenience Store Woman is written by Sayaka Murata, a Japanese writer. The story is well-written for portraying the social expectation which is not just be seen only in the Japanese culture, but it could be seen in another Asian culture as well. In this podcast, the analysis of this book is included.
“This society hasn’t changed one bit. People who don’t fit into the village are expelled: men who don’t hunt, women who don’t give birth to children. For all we talk about modern society and individualism, anyone who doesn’t try to fit in can expect to be meddled with, coerced, and ultimately banished from the village.”
