Haruki Murakami, What I Talk About When I Talk About Running
Morgan Nomura '05 says: "Murakami uses his long-distance running as a springboard to talk about much more: the book addresses his experiences with creativity, daily routine, large life choices, and aging. Running is a memoir of one of the most influential writers today, and it's beautifully written, concise, and useful. (I also recommend his fiction and short stories, but since this is August and we are all busy, this is a good quick read!)"PS: More about this book at GoodReads
