Convenience store woman

by 村田沙耶香

4.0 · 1 review

Critics' consensus

"Convenience Store Woman is widely praised as a sharp, quietly unsettling novella whose deceptively simple prose illuminates social conformity and outsiderdom with dark wit, though some find its brevity leaves its protagonist's inner world underexplored."

A quietly unsettling Japanese novel about social outsiderdom and bodily alienation that echoes the themes of Breasts and Eggs and Butter.
