A Night in Morishita’s Bookstore Beer Bar to Think About Intoxication and Expression
The talk series/event “Cultural Intoxication Record Vol. 1” will be held at `sabo beer bar & bookstore` in Morishita, Koto Ward. The theme is the distance between drinking and writing. Using as clues the act of “writing while drunk” - like late-night social media posts or a note deleted the next morning - the event will loosely trace the relationship between expression and intoxication.
Guest speaker Yasunao Yoshida, best known as the vocalist of the band Triple Fire, will appear. As a writer and speaker active across essays, variety shows, and more, he will talk about how everyday discomfort becomes words, and how “writing” and “living” come closer together. A signing session is also planned after the talk, and the venue will have a limited number of signed copies of Yoshida’s books I Had Forgotten Until I Came Here and Today, Sleeping Was the Best Thing to Do.
The venue, `sabo beer bar & bookstore`, is a beer pub and bookstore where shelves, a counter, and sofa seating coexist in a calm, plant-filled space. Its appeal is that you can enjoy craft beer while browsing books selected by a shop owner with editorial experience. On ordinary days, it serves eight taps of domestic craft beer on a rotating daily basis, and depending on the season, the lineup may also include original beers. This announcement did not name specific brews, but the shop’s strength - naturally easing people from beer into cultural conversation - seems well matched to the event.
The event will be held on Sunday, May 17, with Open 17:00 / Start 17:30 / End 19:00. The fee is 3,500 yen + 1 drink. In a place where books and beer sit on the same table, it looks set to become a night where the boundary between reading and drinking gently dissolves.
