Fülszöveg


"Smithy is an American original, worthy of a place on the shelf just below your Hucks, your Holdens, your Yossarians." —Stephen King
By all accounts, especially his own, Smithson "Smithy" Ide is a loser. An overweight, friendless, chain-smoking, forty-three-year-old drunk, Smithy's life becomes completely unhinged when he loses his beloved parents and long lost sister all within the span of one week. Rolling down the driveway of his parents' house in Rhode Island on his old Raleigh bicycle in an effort to escape his grief, the emotionally bereft Smithy embarks on an epic, hilarious, luminous, and extraordinary journey of discovery and redemption.
"Endearing . . . it's a ride worth taking." —USA Today
"The two narrative lines are funny, strange, heartbreaking and beautiful. Mr. McLarty writes with warmth and depth, inviting his readers into Smithy's
world and making them comfortable there." —The Wall Street Journal

"In The Memory of Running, professional actor and long aspiring novelist Ron McLarty has invented a character so fully and elegantly defined that the book soars with originality and life." —San Francisco Chronick
"Captivating . . . McLarty unspools passage after passage of devastating grace and melancholy, .and his taciturn hero hooks himself to your heart."
—Entertainment Weekly Vissza
