I found his second book, “Lila”, to be quite enlightening. His discourse on biological, social and intellectual patterns of quality changed my worldview at the time I read the book.

An amazingly deep book. Which I've been rereading every since it came out.

Much food for thought as Pirsig furiously "statically latches" his Metaphysics of Quality.

Edit: and yes, can confirm world my view has changed significantly since first reading. Even more than ZAMM, which has had a similar effect.
