Victory over Violence Exhibit in Odum Library, March 24-27
We have nine volumes of Sho Fumimura’s Sanctuary available to check out. It’s the story of two friends who take different paths in life– one to become a Yakuza boss and the other a struggling politician.
The call number for Sanctuary is PN 6728 .F86 S36. That’s on the Library’s third floor, in the older part of the building– near classroom #3270 and study room #3629. If you need help finding any call number, just ask.
You can read other manga online (including Fumimura’s Fist of the North Star) at One Manga.
