Will check out this new book, although it's hard for me to imagine how it could have the impact that Zen and.... had.
Just curious, what is the "moq website"?
Any chance of a link?
Cheers, Phil.

sorry its not Robert Pirsig who passed away- but his son Chris, who if you recall, was the pillion rider in the book. Chris was senselessly murdered at 23
the moq link is

yes the new book is really homage to the original but fills in all sorts of background detail which may be of interest to fans. Anyway the new book "Zen and Now" refers to photos Pirsig had taken on the original trip so I went searching on the internet and found them
