Renowned classics scholar and best-selling author Andrea Marcolongo, whom André Aciman called “today’s Montaigne,” returns with a THE ART OF RUNNING: LEARNING TO RUN LIKE A GREEK (April 2).
In 2021, as the pandemic entered its second year, like many of us Marcolongo felt despondent, isolated, and apprehensive about the future-until she discovered running.
After years spent with her head and heart in books, trying to think like a Greek, she decided to learn how to run like a Greek. In doing so, she not only deepened her understanding of the culture and civilization she has spent decades studying, but also learned a great deal about herself.
In this spirited, generous, and engaging book, Marcolongo shares not only her erudition but also her own journey to understanding that a healthy body is indeed, and in more ways than one might guess, a healthy mind.
