Pi Patel is an unusual boy. The son of a zookeeper, he has an encyclopedic knowledge of animal behavior, a fervent love of stories, and practices not only his native Hinduism, but also Christianity and Islam. When Pi is sixteen, his family emigrates from India to North America aboard a Japanese cargo ship, along with their zoo animals bound for new homes.
The ship sinks. Pi finds himself alone in a lifeboat, his only companions a hyena, an orangutan, a wounded zebra, and Richard Parker, a 450-pound Bengal tiger. Soon the tiger has dispatched all but Pi, whose fear, knowledge, and cunning allow him to coexist with Richard Parker for 227 days lost at sea. When they finally reach the coast of Mexico, Richard Parker flees to the jungle, never to be seen again. The Japanese authorities who interrogate Pi refuse to believe his story and press him to tell them "the truth." After hours of coercion, Pi tells a second story, a story much less fantastical, much more conventional-but is it more true?
Life of Pi is at once a realistic, rousing adventure and a meta-tale of survival that explores the redemptive power of storytelling and the transformative nature of fiction. It's a story, as one character puts it, to make you believe in God.
扬•马特尔(Yann Martel)
一九六三年出生于西班牙,父母是加拿大人。幼时曾旅居哥斯达黎加、法国、墨西哥、加拿大,成年后作客伊朗、土耳其及印度。毕业于加拿大特伦特大学哲学系,其后从事过各种稀奇古怪的行业,包括植树工、洗碗工、保安等。
仍然记得当年坐在德班的电影院里看电影时候的震撼,一直想读原文,没想到时隔几年才花了3个月把原文看完了,所有的事情只有去做才有实现的可能,生存也好,阅读也好,在绝境中坚持,正好现在也碰到了大问题,希望能慢慢的和Pi一样的度过去。感觉可以再读的一本书。话说李安增加了一些原著没有的情节,加上电影的特技呈现的一些想象,书和电影都很喜欢,各有不同
评分只有在死亡临近之时,道德才不会陷入两难。如果不是先看电影应该会更好呢。
评分电影看了很多遍,情节熟记于心,已经很喜欢了,而再读小说依然惊喜连连。《少年pi的奇幻漂流》这个译名稍微削弱了这个故事的沉重感,原名《Life of Pi》似乎更佳。小说作者用轻盈且几乎诗意的语言,承载住了故事里那些残酷、荒诞、冲突、彷徨和挣扎,就好像书中Pi在漂流时,无数个一边伴随威胁生命的猛虎,一边抬头看到海面上绚烂奇景的瞬间。

我看到很多评论在质疑作者声称的“这是一个可以令你信仰上帝的故事”,说是噱头、广告词、商业炒作,失望之情溢于言表。大家期待的是全能的上帝。这样的上帝不会失态地诅咒无辜的无花果树,不会让世界上出现那么多冲突的教派,不会陷人于绝望之中互相残杀,不会逼迫素食少年吃...
评分 评分这一段深深地震动了我。 看到自己对于fear已有过的体会被作者这样淋漓尽致地书写出来,不得不佩服。没有丰富的经验和强大的内在是无法对fear有这样深刻的描写的。 I must say a word about fear. It is life’s only true opponent. Only fear can defeat life. It is a cle...
评分《少年派的奇幻漂流》(《Life of Pi》)是加拿大作家扬.马特尔的一部畅销小说。此书获得了2002年的布克奖。李安将这部被称为“不可能拍成电影”的小说拍成了同名电影《少年派的奇幻漂流》。电影利用了3D技术,视觉效果极其震撼,还带有些许的悬疑奇幻色彩,成为了一部叫座又叫...
评分The book had been on my bookshelf for quite some time ,but never seemed inviting enough for reading and I didn't even know what it was about . Because of my recent reading of the Call of the Wild and White Fang , I had this sudden interest in books that h...
