ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK

“Eleanor & Park” by Rainbow Rowell is a poignant story about two high school sophomores, Eleanor, an awkward, red-haired girl with a troubled home life, and Park, a quiet, half-Korean boy struggling with his own identity. Set in 1986, their unlikely bond begins on the bus, where they bond over music, comics, and shared feelings of isolation. As their relationship deepens, they navigate the complexities of young love, bullying, family struggles, and self-discovery. The novel explores themes of belonging, personal growth, and the impact of love and friendship, set against the backdrop of emotional and physical challenges.
