Finished the book "Life of Pi" last week.
It was very different from what I thought it would be like. From my friend's introduction to the book I knew it was a lost at sea kinda adventure but the treatment was refreshingly different.
To keep a whole novel centered on one person ( okay .. 2) with no other characters other than a few pages here n there is quite a feat and then to do it in such a way that you are thoroughly engrossed is pretty remarkable.
Pi is a unique character and the novel is a great testament to the character that Pi is. Its quite stunning what a person will do to survive if there are no other options. Like Pi says "you can get used to anything"
I really loved this book and highly recommend it. The last few pages are indeed thought provoking.
Cheers.
