Read Norwegian Wood by Haruki Murakami and then come discuss with us at the Des Plaines Public Library.

A poignant story of one college student's romantic coming-of-age, Norwegian Wood takes us to that distant place of a young man's first, hopeless, and heroic love. Toru, a quiet and preternaturally serious young college student in Tokyo, is devoted to Naoko, a beautiful and introspective young woman, but their mutual passion is marked by the tragic death of their best friend years before.

Copies of these books are available at the Readers Services desk on the 3rd floor of the library. Registration required. The book club will meet in the Forum on the fourth floor of the Des Plaines Public Library @ 7:30pm on January 21st.
