Jon Katz, a respected journalist, father, and husband, was
turning fifty. His writing career had taken a dubious turn, his
wife had a demanding career of her own, his daughter was preparing
to leave home for college, and he had become used to a sedentary
lifestyle. Wonderfully witty and insightful, Running to the
Mountain chronicles Katz’s hunger for change and his search for
renewed purpose and meaning in his familiar world.
Armed with the writings of Thomas Merton and his two faithful
Labradors, Katz trades in his suburban carpool-driving and escapes
to the mountains of upstate New York. There, as he restores a
dilapidated cabin, learns self-reliance in a lightning storm,
shares a bottle of Glenlivet with unexpected ghosts, and helps a
friend prepare for fatherhood, he confronts his lifelong questions
about spirituality, mortality, and his own self-worth. He
ultimately rediscovers a profound appreciation for his work, his
family, and the beauty of everyday life–and provides a glorious
lesson for us all.
