Convenience Store Woman
Sayaka Murata, 2016
A woman who has worked in a convenience store for eighteen years finds its manual clearer than society's unwritten rules.
Sayaka Murata
Murata worked part-time at a convenience store for eighteen years, and the novel's store details come from that daily routine.
Feels like identity, melancholy and society.
What if being 'cured' meant being erased?
The normal world has no room for exceptions and always quietly eliminates foreign objects. Anyone who is lacking is disposed of.So that’s why I need to be cured. Unless I’m cured, normal people will expurgate me. Finally I understood why my family had tried so hard to fix me. Books by Sayaka Murata
