From Publishers Weekly

Murakami's latest is a nonfiction work mostly concerned with his thoughts on the long-distance running he has engaged in for much of his adult life. Through a mix of adapted diary entries, old essays, reminiscences and life advice, Murakami crafts a charming little volume notable for its good-natured and intimate tone. While the subject matter is radically different from the fabulous and surreal fiction that Murakami (The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle) most often produces, longtime readers will recognize the source of the isolated, journeying protagonists of the author's novels in the formative running experiences recounted. Murakami's insistence on focusing almost exclusively on running can grow somewhat tedious over the course of the book, but discrete, absorbing episodes, such as a will-breaking 62-mile ultramarathon and a solo re-creation of the historic first marathon in Greece serve as dynamic and well-rendered highlights. Murakami offers precious little insight into much of his life as a writer, but what he does provide should be of value to those trying to understand the author's long and fruitful career. An early section recounting Murakami's transition from nightclub owner to novelist offers a particularly vivid picture of an artist soaring into flight for the first time. (Aug.)

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 dozen critically acclaimed books, he reflects upon the influence the sport has had on his life and—even more important—on his writing.

Equal parts training log, travelogue, and reminiscence, this revealing memoir covers his four-month preparation for the 2005 New York City Marathon and takes us to places 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 marvelous lens of sport emerges a panorama 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 revelatory, both for fans of this masterful yet guardedly private writer and for the exploding population of athletes who find similar satisfaction in running.

这是这段时间来对我影响最大的书,是一本当你厌倦了之前的颓废与不规律的生活时给你勇气改变的书。 在看到这本书之前,一直以为村上是一个颓废,糜烂的人,在黑暗的房间听《Hotel California 》的人,抽过多的烟,喝很多的酒,白天黑吧颠倒的人。哪知,他是...

杭州国际马拉松大赛 run on 2008.11.09 在起跑前发现好些选手的手臂上用胶带一层层的缠绕着MP3,偶有几个还缠了几块巧克力,颇为不解。我当初的想法单纯到不行:尽可能的减轻身体重量,听歌设备与食物是不必的,就连手表也是斟酌许久才下的决定。 比赛当天凉快也无风,算是...

这是第二次翻开村上春树的《当我谈跑步时,我谈些什么》 记得第一次看这本书的时候是高考完那年,看完《挪威的森林》之后又决定看这本《跑步》,我记得当时看完之后,对村上彻底失望了。 首先,挪威的森林似乎超出了我能接受的范围,我怀抱着一丝希望,希望《跑》能让我重拾...

去年十月,去公共图书馆看书,看到一本《大智若驴》,作者说他坐在草地上看毛驴吃草,这简直是一种心灵疗法。一月份去公共图书馆借书,看到一本《散步是一门失传的艺术》,讲到如何通过散步来平衡自己的人生。三月份去公共图书馆看书,看到一本村上春树写的《当我跑步时我谈些...

29岁开始写小说,怎么也算是大器晚成了吧。 更何况是从33岁开始跑步。  村上春树的小说颓靡忧伤,充满迷蒙和幻象。以为本人也是同样的气质,没想到的是,这部类似传记的文字,完全改变了我对他的印象。 自律、专注、严格和节制。感觉他就像一棵没有长在丰饶肥沃之地的树,...

这是一本读起来很轻松的小书。前半部分村上分享自己参加马拉松前的准备工作,并与其他与跑步无关的事情(例如:写作练习)联系在了一起;中间则讲述参加比赛的事情;最后讲些除跑步外的其他运动。原本打算读完此书便跳进离家很远的游泳池里学自由式,可当真正读完时,望望酷暑还是打消了那个念头,转为睡前冥想。(斯认为)全书的宗旨是:在跑步前需规划安排长期的有效时间(用于跑步),而后坚持下去,逐渐培养成了习惯。当然这种坚持终有收获的(例如:戒烟、身体变得强壮)。

“跑步是孤独的。骑自行车比跑步更孤独。”像漂浮的朽木一样游泳我也是会的。所以我不如去修炼铁人三项吧。 = =

这居然是我读的村上君的第一本书。接下来读他的《且听风吟》吧。英文版看着比中文版爽多了。 重新又读一遍。每次跑步的时候,ipod里面放的是这本书来听,真是应景。
