Bookclub: Human Acts (CBR)

About

Welcome to our latest event happening at King O'Malley's, a bar and restaurant in Canberra! This month we will be reading Human Acts by Han Kang.

Han Kang’s Human Acts is a haunting novel about the 1980 Gwangju Uprising in South Korea, tracing the lives shattered by state violence and the lasting weight of grief, memory, and resistance.

For those new to Literature Clubhouse, we are a growing bookclub that focusses on classic, philosophy, and feminist literature. If you're in your 20s and looking for a third-space to meet likeminded people, make new friends, and enjoy some good food and drink, then come along to our monthly meet-ups.

Please aim to have read (or have at least made a substantial effort to read) the book before coming to the event as it helps facilitate a more lively conversation. If you couldn't get to it or signed up last minute thats fine too! We'd still love to see you there.

The booking is under the name 'Jess'. Please make sure not to arrive early as we need time to prepare your fun evening!
