Book is very good. I am not a avid reader but I found this book very interesting and inspiring. Inspiring in the sense that author has given example how running helps him concentrate and draw comparison between running and writing

Great service by flipkart, on time delivery etc.etc.
Couple of things I found disappointing - the reason I ordered the Rs 600 copy from Flipkart is for the Cover of the book, I wanted to gift this book to a friend and wanted her to have a better copy/cover than what is available in the market. But turns out i've got the same copy that my sister picked up from blossoms for half the price :( that hurt!

Anyhoo, the book is a good read.

What drew me to this one was the title. Raymond Carver, a favourite American short story writer, has a collection called 'What I Talk About When I Talk About Love'. Turns out Murakami admires Carver too.

Perhaps in keeping with Carver, this book employs spartan prose. It is nonchalantly honest, yet effortlessly proud, about remarkable feats of physical endurance. Given how many of his books tug the magical realism line, it is refreshing to see such personal candour in writing about running.

Why do you run ? This is a question all serious runners are asked. Serious running go beyond casual fitness runs. Long distance running is always lonely and invariably painful. It does teach you discipline and courage.
Murakami has written an excellent memoir about the reasons he started to run and how it changed his life and his writing.
All serious runners will relate to this book. Others will enjoy a very good book. Recommended.

Murakami is not everyone. I read kafka on the shore and said this ti myself...
But given what Murakami lovers say, I gave it a chance. I loved the book.

So it is like a rant. Someone who loves running is talking about it. I can connect with it, I loved it. Not everyone will... Tread lightly, with an open mind.

Delivery was safe and fast..
Book is no doubt amazing and must read

One of the most inspiring books I have ever read.

excellent journey with run and literature.

This is the book every distance runner goes through it. Great meditation

A must read book.
