Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance: An Inquiry into Values by Robert M. Pirsig (1974)
Requirements: ePUB Reader | 650 Kb
Overview: Acclaimed as one of the most exciting books in the history of American letters, this modern epic became an instant bestseller upon publication in 1974, transforming a generation and continuing to inspire millions.

A narration of a summer motorcycle trip undertaken by a father and his son, the book becomes a personal and philosophical odyssey into fundamental questions of how to live. The narrator's relationship with his son leads to a powerful self-reckoning; the craft of motorcycle maintenance leads to an austerely beautiful process for reconciling science, religion, and humanism. ("The real cycle you're working on is a cycle called 'yourself.'")

Resonant with the confusions of existence, Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance is a touching and transcendent book of life.
Genre: Non-Fiction, Philosophy, Spiritual

"In his autobiographical first novel, Pirsig wrestles both with the ghost of his past and with the most important philosophical questions of the 20th century -- why has technology alienated us from our world? what are the limits of rational analysis? if we can't define the good, how can we live it? The magic of Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance turns out to lie not in the answers it gives, but in the questions it raises and the way it raises them. Like a cross between The Razor's Edge and Sophie's World, Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance takes us into 'the high country of the mind' and opens our eyes to vistas of possibility." ~Brian Bruya
