and India; the latter country became the place where he found his inspiration for this novel.
He has been making a living by writing since the age of twenty-seven, publishing a book of short stories and going on to become a critically acclaimed author with his novel ?Self?
?Life of Pi? is his third novel and the winner of The Man Booker Prize 2002.
He lives in Montreal where he continues his writing, I for one hope to see a new novel as soon as possible.
Introduction
Under the title of ?Author?s Note? Martel weaves true life with a touch of fantasy to explain the background of this novel, using it as if he was hunting down the story for himself by means of talking to Pi, the hero of the story. Various notes throughout the story keep this fantasy alive and are a work of art in themselves.
What attracted me to this novel? The back ...
Advantages: An amazing story Disadvantages: Starts a little slow
When I came across THE LIFE of Pi by YANN MARTELL in the resident's lounge of an hotel in Spain, something stirred and I immediately grabbed it with both hands, furtively slinking off with it. Naturally, I left the book I'd just finished reading in its place (what do you think I am, some sort of filcher?)
So I swapped books...and I'm so very glad I did.
The basic premise of the book is the story of a young, 16-year-old Indian boy, Piscine Molitor Patel, who survives a shipwreck only to find himself sharing a lifeboat with a badly-injured zebra, a hyena, an orang-utan and a 450-pound Bengal tiger called Richard Parker (don't ask).
Not so ridiculous as it first sounds. You see, Pi's father is, or rather was, zookeeper at Pondicherry Zoo. The family have decided to up sticks and emigrate to Canada, and many of the animals ...
Advantages: Very well-written, funny, unputdownable Disadvantages: As with every book, it has to finish at some point
LIfe of Pi is a story about a teenage boy living in India in the 1970s; nothing is particularly staid about Pi: his name is short for Piscine (as in the French word for 'swimming pool), his father runs a zoo, and Pi decides that there is room in his heart for Hinduism, Christianity and Islam (at one point he thanks Lord Krishna for bringing Jesus into his life)!
However, Pi's father decides to relocate to Canada, and on the journey (which he has to share with many of the zoo inhabitants) across the ocean to the new continent, Pi's ship is wrecked and he finds himself stuck on a lifeboat with a hyena, an orang-utan, a zebra with a broken leg and a large Bengal tiger.
What ensues is Pi's attempt to survive in this highly unusual situation, which he does for far longer than would be expected
