Zen and the art of motorcycle maintenance by robert pirsig. The book talks about the state of flow, or optimal experience. The “flow” state is the state to which everyone should aspire in every moment of his or her existence.
Cons
It's not bad but not good. Very pompous and uninspiring.
The book is extremely outdated. The reader of this audiobook is one of the most depressing, droning voices i've ever heard read a book.
My largest gripe is that the book is *heavy* on generalities and little on specifics. There is nothing optimal about this book and the words clear or concise do not apply to this writing style.
