Program Description

Event Details

What are you looking for? This is the famous question routinely asked by Tokyo's most enigmatic librarian, Sayuri Komachi. For anyone who walks through her door, Komachi can sense exactly what they're looking for in life and provide just the book recommendation they never knew they needed to help them find it.

Each visitor comes to her library from a different juncture in their careers and dreams, from the restless sales attendant who feels stuck at her job to the struggling working mother who longs to be a magazine editor. The conversation that they have with Sayuri, and surprise book she lends each of them, will have life-altering consequences.

What You Are Looking For is in the Library by Michiko Aoyama is an ode to the magic of libraries, friendship, and community. Perfect for anyone who has ever found themselves at an impasse in life and in need of a little inspiration.

Registration is requested.
