A philosophical travel diary that sold millions of copies and became a bestseller!
“Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance” (1974) is a completely unique book—a modern philosophical travel novel. The author shares his impressions from a motorcycle trip with his young son from Minneapolis to San Francisco. The journey lasted only 17 days. During this trip, which the reader will take together with the hero, you’ll dive into the captivating world of different teachings, religions, and philosophical schools; you’ll search for answers to the main questions; you’ll encounter an astonishing reality unlike anything else—created by Pirsig.
“The only motorcycle worth fixing is the one you are” says Robert Pirsig.
