Lila by Robert M. Pirsig

Great, great book !

A bit different in respect of "Zen and the art...", but with some points in common, as well....(narrative style amidst fiction and non-fiction; great reflections also in narrative style; the protagonist, Phaedrus, is the son of the protagonist of the better known "Zen and the art..." by the same author. There are a few central concepts that comes along the narrative plot, such as Quality, in particular Dynamic Quality; the concept of Moral; the hierarchic levels of Quality (biological, social, intellectual...) and so on... Some of those quite news, others already known, but read and presented under a new light. Many, many point of reflections and suggestive images of concepts... Unfortunaltely, due to time reasons, I can't write down all of those and all the great thinkings this book (and also "Zen and the art..." that this book caused to rise in my mind. I hope to soon come back to all that and possibly write down something more. Anyway, my brain has as assimilated all that and is continuously mixing and making analogies thanks to the Pirsig's book concepts.

Liverpool - European capital of culture 2008

Liverpool - European capital of culture 2008.

December the 14th 2007, I had the opportunity to attend at Feltrinelli bookshop the Official introduction in Italy of Liverpool as european capital of culture;
Visitbritain has organized the event for introducing Liverpool, through Neil Peterson (responsible for International relations and of the Commitee for Welcoming Liverpool 2008).

Moreover, the new single "Liverpool 2008" by Ringo Starr had been introduced in preview and an italian coverband about Beatles had been playing some of the famous songs by the Liverpool band which exercised some important influences on one of my favorite rock band: Electric Light Orchestra (ELO), coming from Birmingham, not so far from Liverpool. (ELO) :o)

Here follow some useful links related to the event:
