[MD] Announcement - Zen & Now

[ian glendinning]

Some of you may have noticed an existing reference in my timeline to
Toronto Star journalist Mark Richardson researching the Pirsig
biography.

Mark has just announced that the book of his own ZMM journey "Zen &
Now" is to be published by Knopf (Random House, hardcover) and Vintage
(paperback) in September next year .... 2008 the 40th anniversary of
the 1968 ZMM journey.

The interest for Pirsig fans and scholars will be that "Zen & Now"
makes available considerable newly researched biographical detail
behind the periods referred to in ZMM and Lila.
