Lyotard calls postmodernism the deconstruction of
metanarratives of modernity. So it seems Pirsig is
deconstructing the metanarrative of modern America: he
shows the changing influence of Europe and American
Indian in the modern American.
I think he is post modern in his combined use of
analysis and catalysis: philosophy with a story.
