kchausovsky 's review for:
Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance: An Inquiry Into Values
by Robert M. Pirsig
A book full of dichotomies for me. It had moments of searing insight and long slogs of dreadful drudgery. It reminded me of my old philosophy textbooks in college. I both would never recommend this book to the general public and would eagerly recommend it to a philosophy buff. I am bettered by it (it’s discussion of value rigidity and a person’s identification with their work leading to quality) and feel like I lost a lot of my free time to it (the endless lists and descriptions, the contextless details of their trip). Ultimately, I’m just glad I’m done.
