Editorial Reviews

From Library Journal
Training for and running the New York City marathon serve as the backdrop for this open and honest account of the author's relationship with poet William Meredith, who was awarded the 1988 Pulitzer Prize. The work explores the demands of maintaining a career, sustaining a relationship, and caring for a seriously ill loved one. From Meredith, a stroke victim and Harteis's 17-year companion, Harteis gains courage, discipline, and resolve. For runners, the most moving part is Harteis's vivid first-person account of the marathon experience.
