Product Information

An intimate look at writing, running, and the incredible way they intersect, What I Talk About When I Talk About Running is an illuminating glimpse into the solitary passions of one of our greatest artists. While training for the New York City Marathon, Haruki Murakami decided to keep a journal of his progress. The result is a memoir about his intertwined obsessions with running and writing, full of vivid recollections and insights, including the eureka moment when he decided to become a writer. By turns funny and sobering, playful and philosophical, here is a rich and revelatory work that elevates the human need for motion to an art form.

With spare, engaging prose . . . Murakami shares his runner's high." -Sports Illustrated "Enthralling. . . . A quirky, brilliant gem." -Time Out NewYork "Murakami's descriptive eye is as acute as ever. . . . Fascinating. . . . A glimpse into the creative process of one of the world's great writers." -The Hartford Courant "A genuine memoir, filled with gentle minutiae that truly communicates the rhythm of Murakami's daily life and work...Murakami actually offers himselfwhole." -Jesse Jarnow,Paste Magazine "A felicitous, casual series of reflections and anecdotes...[Murakami] has a Warholian way of tinting the mundane with mystery and restrained humor...Do still waters run deep? This paean to a runner's life keeps us, pleasurably, wondering." -Joel Rice,The Tennessean "[What I Talk About When I Talk About Runningis] a graceful explanation of Mr. Murakami's intertwining obsessions, conveyed with his characteristic ability to draw unexpected connections. Running may be a matter of placing one foot in front of the other on the ground, but, as is so often the case with Mr. Murakami, terrestrial objects have a tendency to take flight." -Chloë Schama,New York Sun "Beautifully written and full of great running aphorisms...Anyone who knows perseverance can appreciate this work." -Helen Montoya,San Antonio Express-News "Engaging, insightful...What I Talk About When I Talk About Runningextends [Murakami's] winning streak." -Jenny Shank,Sunday Camera "Murakami constructs this piecemeal narrative with the same masterful, accessible prose marked by humor and streaks of magic which has made him a household name, the same staggering insights, the same fascinating connections...this is exactly what makes Murakami so special: his ability to render everything a part of everything else, and to end with monumental poignancy...In an extremely personal, candid and moving way, the book makes one want to read and run at the same time." -Reynard Seifert,Austin Fit Magazine "[What I Talk About When I Talk About Running] provides a fascinating portrait of Murakami's working mind and how he works his magic on the page...[a] charming, sober little book." -John Freeman, NewarkStar-Ledger "Highly recommended...Practical philosophy from a man whose insight into his own character, and how running both suits and shapes that character, is revelatory and can provide tools for readers to examine and improve their own lives." -Library Journal, "A fascinating portrait of Murakami's working mind and how he works his magic on the page." -- The Plain Dealer "A brilliant meditation on how his running and writing nurture and sustain each other. . . .

Purchased here specifically for the hard to find book cover image. Unfortunately, the one sent had a different book cover I could have found anywhere else.
