The Dwarf by by Cho Se-Hui

The Denison Museum Book Club will hold its next meeting at 2 p.m. on Saturday, Nov. 8, at the Buxton Inn (313 E. Broadway). The book club will discuss the critically acclaimed Korean novel, “The Dwarf,” by Cho Se-hui in association with the museum’s current exhibition “From the Fire: Contemporary Korean Ceramics.” Published in 1978 and translated by Bruce and Ju-Chan Fulton in 2006, “The Dwarf” is a metaphor of the struggle of the proverbial little guy. It continues to find relevance amidst North and South Korean economic, social and environmental issues.

Meetings of the Denison Museum Book Club are free and open to the public, and refreshments will be served. Copies of “The Dwarf” can be purchased at the Reader’s Garden (143 East Broadway). Interested individuals may join the book club at any time. To make a reservation or to learn more about the club, call Amber Schott at 740-587-6225, or send e-mail to schotta@denison.edu
