What I Talk About When I Talk About Running by Haruki Murakami
3.0
An interesting peak into the inner thoughts of the author. I confess I only read one novel from him so far, but really liked it. I needed a short book for a trip and this one was on the shelf, so I took it.
It reveals a lot about the author, or so I think. Perhaps the reason why the rating I give is merely a 3 is because funnily enough, although I also enjoy running, my running has nothing to do with his.
I hope if the author would ever read this review it would be some consolation that the rating reveals not my appreciation for his writing, but the fact that the book is targeted enough on the topic of running and our personal relation to it in our lives that I manage to draw parallels to my own experience.
Still, entertaining enough for a small trip.
