On the Trail of Robert Pirsig's Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance, Zen and Now is the story of a story that will appeal to the 5 million readers of the original and serve as an initiation to a whole new generation. Since its original publication in 1968, Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance: An Inquiry into Values has touched whole generations of readers with its serious attempt to define "quality" in a world that seems indifferent to the responsibilities that quality brings. Mark Richardson expands that journey with an investigation of his own - to find the enigmatic author of Zen and the Art, ask him a few questions, and place his classic book in context. The result manages to be a biography of Pirsig himself - in the discovery of an unknown life of madness, murder and eventual resolution - and a splendid meditation on creativity and problem-solving, sanity and insanity.
