Winner of the Man Booker Prize, Yann Martel’s ‘Life of Pi’ is a fantasy adventure novel about the desperation of survival in the face of death. The novel brings to life the harrowing journey of a young boy (Pi) who finds himself stranded on a lifeboat in the Pacific Ocean with something extraordinary…a Bengal tiger! The author plunges the reader into Pi’s shoes so much so that you can almost taste the salt water. Brilliantly written, Pi’s search for spirituality and discovery of what it truly means to be alive leaves you speechless. You definitely read this hoping for a happy ending. A real page turner!
