| 释义 |
Set in 1931, the story covers an epic footrace across the continental United States. 2,000 runners run the 3,000 miles from Los Angeles to New York City competing for a prize of $150,000. The fictional race was inspired by the actual 1928 Bunion Derby, which covered the same route.[3] On its publication in 1982, the book sold several hundred thousand copies, topped The Times bestseller list in the UK, and was translated into 16 languages.[4] An audiobook version of Flanagan's Run, read by actor Rupert Degas, was published in 2010.[5] Movie rights are owned by Miramax Films.[7] References1. ^1 {{cite web |url=https://www.nytimes.com/1982/07/08/books/books-of-the-times-260615.html |title=Books of the Times (book review) |author=Christopher Lehmann-Haupt |date=July 8, 1982 |work=New York Times |accessdate=17 June 2010}} [1][2][3][4][5]2. ^1 {{cite web |url=http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/vault/article/magazine/MAG1125718/index.htm |title=A Novel Based On The Bunion Derby Masters The Subject, Not The Lingo |author= |date=July 26, 1982 |work=Sports Illustrated |accessdate=17 June 2010}} 3. ^1 {{cite web |url=http://entertainment.timesonline.co.uk/tol/arts_and_entertainment/books/audio_books/article7084186.ece |title=Audio books by Tom McNab and P.G.
