Trade paperback. A book as much about fathers and sons as it is about an emotionally-driven obsession with running.
Synopsis
Tells an emotional story of a father and son trying to repair a relationship through a shared activity that depends on sheer physical effort, the kind of physical effort that may once have been the source of commonality between father and son in all previous generations but which seems to be absent in the modern world.
