'Zen And The Art of Motorcycle Maintenance' Author Robert M. Pirsig Dies At 88

quote [ Zen was published in 1974, after being rejected by 121 publishing houses. "The book is brilliant beyond belief," wrote Morrow editor James Landis before publication. "It is probably a work of genius and will, I'll wager, attain classic status." ]

The whole "Philosophy of Quality" thing was a very personal delirium, but the narrative of the novel was captivating, and quite moving.
It belongs to the "Guru-Book" category, along with Cohelo's Alchemist, de Saint Exupery's Petite Prince, Bach's Livingstone's seagull, Hesse's Siddartha, etc.
Some of them are good, some are bad, but they are all good to be quoted in Facebook, or to inspire the strategies of some CEO with a thing for New-Age.
