My New York Marathon

""A delightful visual journey through what it takes to conquer the New York City Marathon."" - AM NEW YORK ""Outside of Haruki Murakami's What I Talk About When I Talk About Running, literature and running don't often go hand in hand, but Samson's memoir is an affirming love letter to the event and the city around it-and boasts endorsements from several celebrity runners, the New York Road Runners club and the New York Marathon itself."" - PASTE MAGAZINE "** STARRED REVIEW** Any New York City marathon represents tens of thousands of stories, but few are as beautifully described or entertainingly told as this one. A must-read for anyone thinking about taking on the challenge." - LIBRARY JOURNAL ""The story culminates in the marathon, interspersed with a heartfelt N.Y.C. travelogue from a Gallic point of view. Presented in a visual style fusing animation influences and observational realism, Samson's work is indispensable to marathon runners and those intending to take up the sport."" - PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
