"The place to improve the world is first in one's own heart and head and hands, and then work outward from there": First Edition of Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance; Signed by Robert M. Pirsig
First edition of the author's ground breaking work. Octavo, black boards with titles to the spine in silver. Signed by the author on the front endpage. Fine in a near fine price-clipped dust jacket. A sharp copy of an important book.
An "enormously influential journey of self-discovery permeated by philosophical discussion, and startlingly original and disturbing imagery, based on an autobiographical account of a journey across the USA on a motorbike undertaken with his son in 1968; the shifts between narrative, analogy, and philosophical meditation have prompted several critics to see this work as a latter-day Moby-Dick" (Stringer, 532).
