Book Description Softcover. Condition: new. The extraordinary story of a man's quest for truth. It will change the way you think and feel about your life. "The cycle you're working on is a cycle called 'yourself.'"The study of the art of motorcycle maintainence is really a study of the art of rationality itself. Working on a motorcycle, working well, caring, is to become part of a process, to achieve an inner peace of mind. The motorcycle is primarily a mental phenomenon." -- Robert M. Pirsig"Profoundly important. full of insights into our most perplexing contemporary dilemmas. It is intellectual entertainment of the highest order." -- "The New York Times"It lodges in the mind as few recent novels have. The book is inspired, original. As the mountains gentle toward the sea--with father and child locked in a ghostly grip--the narrative tact, the perfect economy of effect defy criticism. The analogies with "Moby Dick" are patent. Robert Pirsig invites the prodigious comparison. What more can one say?" -- "The New Yorker"It's a miracle. sparkles like an electric dream. Freshness, originality. that seduces you into loving motorcycles, as tender in their pistons as the petals in the Buddah's dawn lotus." -- "The Village Voice". Seller Inventory # DADAX0099598167
