Lila: An Inquiry into Morals

Monday, December 3rd, 2007

Just finished the book Lila: An Inquiry into Morals. A definite must read. If you’ve read Pirsig’s first book, you will know what to expect, but I liked this one even more. It’s somehow more practical and provides a fresh view on the big questions in life. But it is difficult to read. […]
