"One is tempted to call the book a psychomelodrama, for Pirsig's intentions are as extravagant as his themes. The attempt to triumph over madness, suicide, death in the self, of his son, for our world, by means of the patient exploration of ideas an emotions is certainly an extravagant ambition. That he succeeds in finding a plausible catharsis through such an enterprise seems to me sufficient reward for the author's perseverance, and ample testimony to his honesty and courage."Robert M. Pirsig is the author of 'Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance: An Inquiry Into Values', published 1999 under ISBN 9781559275576 and ISBN 155927557X.
