Krátky popis
In 1982, having sold his jazz bar to devote himself to writing,
Murakami began running to keep fit. A year later, he'd completed a
solo course from Athens to Marathon, and now, after dozens of such
races, not to mention triathlons and a slew of critically acclaimed
books, he reflects upon the influence the sport has had on his life
and on his writing. Equal parts travelogue, training log, and
reminiscence, this revealing memoir covers his four-month
preparation for the 2005 New York City Marathon and settings
ranging from Tokyo's Jingu Gaien gardens, where he once shared the
course with an Olympian, to the Charles River in Boston among young
women who outpace him. Through this marvellous lens of sport
emerges a cornucopia of memories and insights: the eureka moment
when he decided to become a writer, his greatest triumphs and
disappointments, his passion for vintage LPs, and the experience,
after fifty, of seeing his race times improve and then fall back.By
turns funny and sobering, playful and philosophical, What I Talk
About When I Talk About Running is rich and revealing, both for
fans of this masterful yet private writer and for the exploding
population of athletes who find similar satisfaction in distance
