Winner of the 2002 Man Booker Prize for Fiction "Let me tell you a secret: the name of the greatest living writer of the generation born in the sixties is Yann Martel."-- L'Humanitรฉ "A story to make you believe in the soul-sustaining power of fiction and its human creators, and in the original power of storytellers like Martel." -- Los Angeles Times Book Review "If this century produces a classic work of survival literature, Martel is surely a contender.'--The Nation "Beautifully fantastical and spirited." -- Salon "Martel displays the clever voice and tremendous storytelling skills of an emerging master." --Publishers Weekly "[Life of Pi] could renew your faith in the ability of novelists to invest even the most outrageous scenario with plausible life." -- The New York Times Book Review "Audacious, exhilarating . . . wonderful. The book's middle section might be the most gripping 200 pages in recent Canadian fiction. It also stands up against some of Martel's more obvious influences: Edgar Allen Poe's The Narrative of Arthur Gordon Pym , the novels of H. G. Wells, certain stretches of Moby Dick ."-- Quill & Quire, PRAISE FORLIFE OF PI "Life of Picould renew your faith in the ability of novelists to invest even the most outrageous scenario with plausible life."-The New York Times Book Review "A story to make you believe in the soul-sustaining power of fiction."-Los Angeles Times Book Review "A gripping adventure story . . . Laced with wit, spiced with terror, it's a book by an extraordinary talent."-St. Paul Pioneer-Press "A terrific book . . . Fresh, original, smart, devious, and crammed with absorbing lore."- Margaret Atwood "An impassioned defense of zoos, a death-defying trans-Pacific sea adventure a laKon-Tiki, and a hilarious shaggy-dog story . . . : This audacious novel manages to be all of these." -The New Yorker "Readers familiar with Margaret Atwood, Mavis Gallant, Alice Munro, Michael Ondaatje and Carol Shields should learn to make room on the map of contemporary Canadian fiction for the formidable Yann Martel." -Chicago Tribune, Winner of the 2002 Man Booker Prize for Fiction "Let me tell you a secret: the name of the greatest living writer of the generation born in the sixties is Yann Martel."-- L'Humanitรฉ "A story to make you believe in the soul-sustaining power of fiction and its human creators, and in the original power of storytellers like Martel." -- Los Angeles Times Book Review If this century produces a classic work of survival literature, Martel is surely a contender.'--The Nation "Beautifully fantastical and spirited." -- Salon "Martel displays the clever voice and tremendous storytelling skills of an emerging master." --Publishers Weekly "[Life of Pi] could renew your faith in the ability of novelists to invest even the most outrageous scenario with plausible life." -- The New York Times Book Review "Audacious, exhilarating . . . wonderful.

  • If you like a story about finding your purpose in life, this is it!

    I love this book! It's one of my favorites so far! The story tells of a story about a young Indian boy who has to survive out on the ocean in a small boat with a tiger named Richard Parker. I love every chapter and I can't wait to finish reading the book!

  • Great Story for a Rainy Day!

    I loved the book!! I needed it for school and I'm glad I read it. It had a wonderful plot that never gets boring! The beginning was a bit slow but Part 2 was where the story got very interesting. The book was long but well worth the read. It was the first British Literature book I'd read and it was very legible for me to read. I would recommend to novice readers.
