There are two copies of Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance listed among the holdings of Percy's private collection now held in the UNC Chapel Hill archives.

2024 marks the 50th anniversary of "Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintainance" by Robert M Pirsig. (There is a 50th anniversary hardcover edition coming out this month, I believe). In Pirsig's follow-up book "LILA: An Inquiry Into Morals", he acknowledges a quote he gives from " The Message In The Bottle". What did Percy think of Pirsig, if anything?
