Weekends are always loved, right? Especially when there are fun activities that can give the effect of feeling happy. Talking about weekends and happy activities, I will throw back to the pre-pandemic era where outdoor activities were dense and varied, one of which was meeting with the literacy club.
So, this week's Weekend-engagement carries a complex theme. But, I feel that I have the capability to answer one point out of the five points that have been chosen.
Still connected to my earlier statement about the book club. In every meeting, the members always get unexpected and unplanned challenges. So, one day I got a challenge to explain about a book I was reading.
What could I present on that occasion?
I started by bringing up the book I was reading, asking the members who had read the book, and then I jumped into the meat of my presentation.
Of course, after the introduction of the book, I would straightforwardly outline what was interesting about the book, shall I give an example?
One day I presented a book called AROMA KARSA.
It was by my favourite female author Dee Lestari. So, of course I mastered my impromptu presentation. I started to describe what was interesting about Aroma Karsa, such as: the unusual setting of the book, which is a Bantar Gebang landfill that is very famous for its towering mountains of rubbish. From here, I will then elaborate on the moral message of environmental conditions and the local community.
In addition, more interestingly, Aroma Karsa's book is about the olfactory nerve organ, so all readers who read this book will be immersed and feel like they are learning about the aromas that are the focus of the book.
Did I succeed? More than succeeded, at that point, I think I was able to influence my friends to buy the book immediately because they were impressed by my impromptu presentation. Not to mention, some new members who weren't really into reading ‘thick’ books were suddenly curious and managed to continue to the Q&A session, which took longer than thirty minutes.
So, does the above situation answer Galen's question, for point two?
According to some of my friends, I have a knack for infecting others with a love of reading, and I'm very grateful for that. The answer to point two of this week's challenge is: topic about books.
So, that's my short story, sorry if it's not too memorable. Thank you for reading.
Hi, I am the child of the universe, I like to read books with various genres. I was born in the city of batik but can't draw batik yet. I want to be a novelist, but my works are only short poems that are included in anthology books.
