Editor's Note:
Shizo groeit aan het einde van de negentiende eeuw op in het zuiden van Japan. Daar staat hij bekend om zijn uitzonderlijke hardlooptalent. Na jarenlange intensieve training is hij uitverkoren om mee te doen aan de Zweedse Olympische Spelen van 1912. Maar tijdens die wedstrijd bezwijkt Shizo en hij kan de marathon niet uitlopen.Shizo is bang dat hij zijn ouders teleurgesteld heeft en durft na deze schande niet terug naar huis. Hij trekt zich terug in de bergen. Niemand weet waar hij gebleven is. Uiteindelijk wordt hij, inmiddels een oude man, ontdekt door een Zweedse journalist die zijn verhaal kent en onthult. Wat gebeurde er precies tijdens de marathon en waar is Shizo al die jaren geweest?Het jaar dat Shizo Kanakrui verdween is gebaseerd op een waargebeurd verhaal. Toen Franco Faggiani voor een sporttijdschrift een artikel over marathons moest schrijven, stuitte hij bij zijn research op iets vreemds. Achter een Japanse atleet stond de volgende marathontijd: 54 jaar, 8 maanden, 6 dagen, 5 uur, 32 minuten en 20 seconden. Faggiani was geïntrigeerd en besloot zich te verdiepen in deze man, om deze mysterieuze uitslag te verklaren. Zo ontstond zijn nieuwe roman.
