After the tragic sinking of a cargo ship, one solitary lifeboat remains bobbing on the wild, blue Pacific. The only survivors from the wreck are a sixteen-year-old boy named Pi, a hyena, a zebra (with a broken leg), a female orang-utan… and a 450-pound Royal Bengal tiger. The scene is set for one of the most extraordinary works of fiction in recent years.
Bleah, so preachy.
Someone I know stopped reading this book early on, due to all the religious philosophy on the beginning. I stuck with it just to see where it would go, and it took me somewhere COMPLETELY different. It made an impression on me, and I turned around & bought this for my mother.
