Review of 'What I Talk About When I Talk About Running' on 'Goodreads'

4 stars

Before reading this book, I've only read "After the Quake" and a bit of "Kafka on the Shore" but even then, I knew that Murakami's a great writer. And behind every great writer is a crazy genius. While this book is mainly about his running, there are bits of wisdom and brief snapshots into Murakami's mind. I think that running sounds like "my thing" but I enjoy bicycling far more, and I think that I just might start biking regularly.
