What I Talk about When I Talk about Runing

by Haruki Murakami
2021-01-24

I read the Chinese version of Haruki’s book when I was a freshman. After finishing it, I ran for about a month and finished my first 10k in my life. Since then I hadn’t run, at least regularly, until the pandemic began. This is my second time of reading this book, of course in a different language, English. Perhaps due the difference of the closeness between Janpanese and Chinese and that between Janpanese and English, it gives me a quite opposed impression. The Chinese version seems focus on description of the pain and edurance of the pain, while English one is heavier on the Haruki’s style humour.
