Zen and now : on the trail of Robert Pirsig and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance

Inspired by Robert Pirsig's Zen and the art of motorcycle maintenance, journalist Mark Richardson takes to his Suzuki dirt bike and retraces Pirsig's journey from Minneapolis to San Francisco. In the resulting chronicle the author ponders Pirsig's philosophy and the answers it may offer to the questions in his own life as well as presenting a stirring meditation on a classic work and a passionate inquiry into the lessons it continues to teach us today.
