"The real cycle you're working on is a cycle called 'yourself.'"One of the most important and influential books of 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 meditation on how to live better. The narrative of a father on a summer motorcycle trip across America's Northwest with his young son, it becomes a profound personal and philosophical odyssey into life's fundamental questions. A true modern classic, it remains at once touching and transcendent, resonant with the myriad confusions of existence and the small, essential triumphs that propel us forward.

Fy. Fan. Så tråkig. Och huvudpersonen (författaren själv) en extremt självupptagen, pretentiös karaktär som presenterar "djupsinnigheter" mellan själsdödande passager om hur han åker motorcykel, stannar, äter, sover, ser träd m.m. Läs inte!
