Lila by Robert M Pirsig
Phaedrus is sailing down the Hudson River when he meets Lila Blewitt. He is drawn to her physically and interested in her intellectually. Lila prompts Phaedrus to explore conflicts of values, and finally, he formulates his 'Metaphysics of Quality', which offer a system of understanding actions according to a hierarchy of four evolutionary realms.
"'Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance was like a first childMaybe that will always be the best-loved one. But this second child is the bright one. I think a lot of people will argue with some of the ideas in Lila. There may be controversy. But if people are still reading these two books a hundred years from now, I predict Lila will be the one they consider the more important' Robert M. Pirsig"
Rumors have been flying around for quite a while that Pirsig committed suicide. He did not. He is currently staying out of the limelight and working on various projects.
