Description
Running has been a defining aspect of Haruki Murakami's life, influencing his writing and shaping his experiences. In this memoir, he reflects on the power of running and its impact on his life, sharing his four-month preparation for the 2005 New York City Marathon and his travels to Tokyo's Jingu Gaien gardens and Boston's Charles River.
Part travelogue, training log, and reminiscence, this book offers a unique insight into Murakami's life and writing. By turns humorous and sobering, playful and philosophical, it is a compelling read for fans of this acclaimed author and for anyone who finds satisfaction in distance running.
