Details

Read Around the World is a small, monthly book club dedicated to exploring world literature one country at a time.

This month’s pick is The Metamorphosis by Franz Kafka—a short, unsettling, darkly funny tale in which a man wakes up one morning as a giant insect and immediately worries about being late for work. This Czech classic is guaranteed to make you grateful for your current species. No prior knowledge of existential dread required (but it helps).

Event structure:

  1. Brief introductions (10 minutes)
  2. Small group and/or partner discussion (50 minutes)
  3. Whole group reflection (20 minutes)
  4. Final thoughts and closing remarks (10 minutes)

We will meet on the 2nd floor of Vino Vino Café in Daan from 1:00-2:30PM. Attendees are asked to make a purchase at the cafe for kindly hosting our event.

📍:No. 2號, Lane 80, Shida Rd, Da’an District, Taipei City, 106.


This event is Chinese/English bilingual friendly.
