Title: Keep your money
Review: I loved "Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance", but I firmly believe that Pirsig should have not written Lila. It's like so many athletes coming out of retirement. Was he hurting for money?Pirsig was never a great writer. He had interesting ideas which made Zen readable and interesting, but with Lila he has many fewer original ideas and relies heavily on his junior varsity writing abilities. Reading Lila felt like I was eating warmed over left-overs of Zen.Mind you, Pirsig does have some tolerably stimulating ideas, but the intellectual content one could glean from this book could almost fill a slim pamphlet. It's like a near empty bottle of philosophy which is filled with water and shaken up. Now the patron is asked to pay dollar for a penny's worth of ideas.And what's with the prurient sexual content?
