Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance by Robert M. Pirsig
2.0
Those of us of a certain age who can remember the 70's with any degree of certainty will recall the rash of books that came out then, like Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance, The Dancing Woo Le Masters, The Tao of Physics, etc. Sort of New AGE Books that, if you read them, somehow you would be better for it. Never finished any of those books back then. But this book always stuck in the back of my mind as the one I needed to read.
So finally, I did. OUCH! The word boring comes most strongly to mind. I liked the story of the father traveling with his son, even if he pretty much was a dick most of the time. And the story of the father's previous life was vaguely interesting. But the philosophical discussions were a bit much. Too much actually. Sad though. I had such high hopes. But at least I can now say I read the book.....
