About this product
Product Information
One of the most important and influential books written in the past half-century, Robert M. Pirsig's "Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance" is a powerful, moving, and penetrating examination of how we live . . . and a breathtaking meditation on how to live better. Here is the book that transformed a generation: an unforgettable narration of a summer motorcycle trip across America's Northwest, undertaken by a father and his young son. A story of love and fear -- of growth, discovery, and acceptance -- that becomes a profound personal and philosophical odyssey into life's fundamental questions, this uniquely exhilarating modern classic is both touching and transcendent, resonant with the myriad confusions of existence . . . and the small, essential triumphs that propel us forward.

Reviews
"An unforgettable trip." -- Time "The book is inspired, original. . . . The analogies with Moby-Dick are patent." -- The New Yorker "Profoundly important...full of insights into our most perplexing contemporary dilemmas." -- New York Times "It is filled with beauty. . .a finely made whole that seems to emanate from a very special grace." -- Baltimore Sun "A miracle . . . sparkles like an electric dream." -- The Village Voice, "Profoundly important...full of insightsinto our most perplexing contemporarydilemmas." -- "New York Times""The book is inspired, original...the narrative tact, the perfect economy of effect defy criticism. The analogies with "Moby-Dick" arepatent." -- "The New Yorker""A miracle ... sparkles like an electric dream."-- "Village Voice""An unforgettable trip."-- "Time", "An unforgettable trip." -- Time "Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance sold millions of copies and made Pirsig a reluctant hero to generations of intellectual wanderers...Zen was an instant classic -- a work of literature that captured the spirit of its time and retained its appeal long after the hippie movement had faded." -- Washington Post "A touchstone. ... Pirsig's plunge into the grand philosophical questions of Western culture remained near the top of the bestseller lists for a decade and helped define the post-hippie 1970s landscape." -- New York Times "The truly great road trip novel. ... Many former angsty teens will surely fondly recall their own dog-eared, heavily underlined copies of Pirsig's book, and the initial joy that accompanied reading something that felt so specifically personal and yet so urgently universal. ... Zen's ongoing reprints, its devoted fan base, and the countless road trips and pseudo-spiritual journeys it's inspired are indicative of the book's ongoing appeal." -- GQ "Inspired college classes, academic conferences and a legion of 'Pirsig pilgrims' who retrace the anguished, cross-country motorcycle trip at the heart of his novel." -- Los Angeles Times "Profoundly important...full of insights into our most perplexing contemporary dilemmas." -- New York Times "The book is inspired, original. . . . The analogies with Moby-Dick are patent." -- The New Yorker "It is filled with beauty. . .a finely made whole that seems to emanate from a very special grace." -- Baltimore Sun "A miracle . . . sparkles like an electric dream." -- The Village Voice
