The Memory of Running
The Memory of Running
Very Well Kept (Excellent)
Smithson Ide is overweight, isolated, drinking heavily, and drifting through a life he barely notices when the deaths of his parents and news about his missing sister break what remains of his routine. He climbs onto an old bicycle and begins riding across America, meeting strangers while memory and grief follow beside him. Ron McLarty’s The Memory of Running is a compassionate road novel about loss, shame, family, endurance, and the slow possibility of becoming present in one’s own life.
