Hardcover. Condizione: Very Good. Condizione sovraccoperta: Very Good. 1st Edition. First UK edition, fourth impression, published the following year. Some edge wear and chipping to top and bottom of jacket and spine, corners very slightly rubbed, spine slightly yellowed, slight lean, not price clipped (£3.50), no inscriptions,…internally clean and tight, overall a vg+ copy for its age. 412pp, illustrated. The book describes, in first person, a 17 day journey on his motorcycle from Minnesota to Northern California by the author (though he is not identified in the book) and his son Chris. They are joined for the first nine days of the trip by close friends John and Sylvia Sutherland who they part ways with in Montana. The trip is punctuated by numerous philosophical discussions, referred to as Chautauquas by the author, on topics including epistemology, ethical emotivism and the philosophy of science. The book sold more than five million copies worldwide and was originally rejected by 121 publishers, more than any other bestselling book, according to the Guinness Book of Records. Robert Maynard Pirsig (1928-2017), explains that, despite its title,'it should in no way be associated with that great body of factual information relating to orthodox Zen Buddhist practice. It's not very factual on motorcycles either'. A cultural classic. Jacket by John Sewell (illustratore).

Hardcover. Condizione: Near Fine. Condizione sovraccoperta: Near Fine. First UK Edition. First impression of the first UK edition, with the iconic dustwrapper illustration by John Sewell. An unusually near fine book in a near fine dustwrapper. ***Near fine in dark brown cloth-covered boards with gilt titles to the spine. The gil…t is still beautifully bright having been protected by the dustwrapper. The boards are clean and unmarked, with the edges just slightly rubbed. No serious bumps or creases. - head and tail of spine just slightly creased. Corner tips sharp. Page block edges slightly marked but not foxed. No reading lean to the binding. Spine tight. Internally also near fine with no previous ownership details. Pages very clean, with no foxing - just some light offsetting to the endpapers. No creases or tears. ***In a near fine colour-illustrated dustwrapper, which has not been price-clipped, retaining the original publisher's printed price of £2.95 net. The dustwrapper is correct for the first impression, having no mention of impressions on the front flap. Extremities of dustwrapper just very slightly rubbed and creased, mainly at the head of the spine and top edges of the foldover flaps. No chips, serious creases or tears. No fading except for the usual fading to the light green titles on the spine, which are now white. Dustwrapper bright and clean. ***224mm x 148mm. 412 pages. ***'This extraordinary, almost unclassifiable work has been hailed as one of the most exciting books to come out of America in recent years. On the simplest level, it is the story of a summer month's motorcycle trip taken by the narrator with his eleven-year-old son from their home in Minnesota to California. While they ride, the narrator delivers to the reader a series of discourses which range over a multitude of topics, from motorcycle maintenance itself, through a search for how to live and an inquiry into 'what is best' to a philosophy that can reconcile science, religion and humanism. ***But on another, and connecting, level the book is the story of the narrator's visit to the 'forgotten tomb of his past' and his confrontation there with a ghost. The ghost is called Phaedrus and is his former self, a brilliant, questioning man who in his attempt to make sense of his life went mad, underwent shock therapy and 'died' - and has now returned. He and his son have to face that ghost together. He also has to face the fact that his relationship with his son has been deteriorating during the journey. This is the last problem to which he finds a reconciliation. ***An Autobiography of the mind and the body, "Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance" takes the reader on a trip - in a literal, emotional and philosophical sense - that is not only unforgettable but also unlike anything he has previously experienced.' ***'"Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance" is an unforgettable trip'. Time magazine (Quote and review quote taken from the flaps of the dustwrapper) ***A superb example of the first impression of the first UK edition, in its original attractive colour-illustrated first impression dustwrapper, designed by John Sewell. First impressions of the UK first edition are hard to find now, and are almost always damaged in some way. Copies in such near fine condition are seldom seen now. A collector's copy of this cult classic. An iconic twentieth century literary and philosophical title. ***For all our books, postage is charged at cost, allowing for packaging: any shipping rates indicated on ABE are an average only: we will reduce the P & P charge where appropriate - please contact us for postal rates for heavier books and sets etc. John Sewell (Cover illustration) (illustratore).
