Helpful Score: 1

I tried to read this book about ten years ago and couldn't do it. I struggled through about half of it but just could not relate to or understand the authors point.

I recently picked it up again and this time could not put it down. Perhaps it has been life experiences that have given me a greater appreciation for what Pirsig has to say. If you are not 'in to' what you are doing, you won't do it well...plain and simple. Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance has opened the door for me into the very interesting world of philosophy. It is a great story with a lot of insight into human nature.

You definitely have to be in the right âmoodâ to read this book and if you are, I would highly recommend it!
