Pirsig, Robert M. Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance. New York, Bantam Books / William Morrow & Co., 1982. 10.5 x 18cm. 373 pages. Original softcover. Very good condition with minor signs of external wear including sunned spine and crease to front jacket. Some text annotations and underlining. From the library of swiss - american - irish poet Chuck Kruger. [Bantam New Age Books]. 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. 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.
