At Schaumburg Township District Library in Schaumburg, IL, we're excited to read Min Jin Lee's National Book Award finalist Pachinko for our One Book, One Community. Our goal is to have our community read the same book at the same time, sparking great conversations about its themes.
Pachinko, however, is quite a long book - 479 pages! We don't want that to stop people from experiencing the book and all our One Book, One Community has to offer, including a visit from author Min Jin Lee on Feb. 20, 2020.
So, we've created this podcast, breaking to book into sections and talking you through all the characters and the twists and turns of the plot as this story follows four generations of Koreans living in Japan, beginning in the early 1900s.
In Episode 4, we review chapters 11-20 of Book 2 of Pachinko.
