DESCRIPTION:<a href="http://popcornclubshanghai.com/event/book-talk-the-nev
 erending-story-growing-up-friendship-45003/register">Book Talk: The NeverE
 nding Story - Growing Up & Friendship </a>\nThis is the first of three clu
 bs of our deep dive into The NeverEnding Story. If you don't join the othe
 rs\, it's totally fine. If you do\, you'll get more out of it. What if a s
 tory could speak to every generation\, every culture\, and every moment of
  growing up—no matter where you’re from? What if a book you’ve never
  read\, or even heard of\, could still feel strangely familiar the moment 
 you step into its world? Join us for a reflective and welcoming book talk 
 on The NeverEnding Story\, a novel that sits quietly but powerfully inside
  Western culture. It’s famous for its beauty\, imagination\, and emotion
 al depth\, yet it remains deeply relatable to anyone who has ever felt the
 mselves changing\, searching\, or trying to understand a world that doesn
 ’t always make sense. Ben\, who has loved this book for many years\, wil
 l guide the session by reading carefully chosen excerpts that open the doo
 r to rich conversation. Together\, you’ll explore universal themes\; com
 ing of age\, finding real friendship\, and navigating life in a world that
  feels like it’s falling apart. Whether you know the story or you’re h
 earing it for the very first time\, this will be a gentle\, thoughtful\, a
 nd inclusive space to discover why The NeverEnding Story has touched so ma
 ny hearts and why its questions still matter today. 这是我们深度解
 读说不完的故事的三场读书会里的第一场。就算你不参
 加后面的也完全没问题；如果都来，收获会更多就是了
 。 有没有想过，一本故事可以跨过世代、文化，甚至跨
 过每个人成长的不同阶段——无论你来自哪？又或者，
 一本你从来没读过、甚至没听过的书，却能在你翻开它
 的那一刻让你莫名感觉熟悉？来参加这场轻松、开放、
 氛围很友好的读书分享吧，一起聊聊说不完的故事。它
 在西方文化里算是安静但影响力很深的一本书，以想象
 力、情感深度和独特的美感被很多人喜欢，同时对任何
 经历过成长、迷茫、变化的人来说都很有共鸣。 Ben 读这
 本书很多年了，他会带着大家一起读一些特别挑选的片
 段，作为讨论的入口。我们会一起聊聊那些普世的主题
 ：成长、真正的友情，以及在一个看上去有点混乱的世
 界里摸索前行。不管你是老粉，还是第一次接触这本书
 ，这都会是一个温柔、深思、包容的空间，让你看看为
 什么说不完的故事能打动那么多人，以及它留下的问题
 为什么到现在都还值得讨论。
