具体描述
Winner of the 2002 Man Booker Prize for Fiction
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.

读后感
1、这是一个16岁男孩和一只成年孟加拉虎在一艘救生船上共同漂流227天的奇幻故事。书的封皮上说：这是一个能让你产生信仰的故事。我没能产生信仰，但产生思索。 2、这本小说严重教训了我不喜欢先看作者序言的臭毛病！不先看序就会为我的阅读乐趣交上一大笔时间的学费！ 3、结构...
评分电影里那些飘水花灯、印度舞、暴雨沉船、辽阔海面、飞鱼来袭，浮岛幻影等炫酷镜头透过3D眼镜扑过来让我瞪大眼伸长脖在不舒服的椅子里坐到脊柱炸鞭也不觉着亏，而且故事这么弱，前后也不连贯，迟到半钟头去上个厕所活动活动或者睡一觉起来都不耽误，真是老少妇孺咸宜的漂...
评分 评分1，为什么说这是一个能让你相信上帝的故事？ 相信有动物的那个故事，和相信上帝，在本质上是一个道理的。 相信上帝并不是因为有确切的证据证明上帝的存在，而是在事实并没有支持，事实甚至在反对这种信念的时候（日心说，演化论及其他）仍然相信，不然这就不是信仰，...

评分Pi Patel: "Don't worry, you won't. He's hiding somewhere you'll never find him."
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。
