"The real cycle you're working on is a cycle called 'yourself.'"One of the most important and influential books of the past half-century, Robert M. Pirsig's Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance is a powerful, moving, and penetrating examination of how we live and a meditation on how to live better. The narrative of a father on a summer motorcycle trip across America's Northwest with his young son, it becomes a profound personal and philosophical odyssey into life's fundamental questions. A true modern classic, it remains at once touching and transcendent, resonant with the myriad confusions of existence and the small, essential triumphs that propel us forward.

A friend loaned me his copy of the book at a very significant time in my life. It became a friend on lonely nights, a beacon, a pick-me-up and a companion. Even if you don't agree with the principles therein, it's a lovely read filled with a range of heartfelt emotions; a real inspirational tale.
