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.

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。
评分第一部分鋪敘很多。Pi年輕時這麼聰明,看出宗教間的共性,但是你居然三個宗教都信?簡直神人。中間那部分就是海上漂流記。第三部分是日本官員的記錄,沒什麼大補充,無非就是Pi讓官員相信他的話而已
评分nice ending,
评分结尾神逆转
故事开始时是作者虚构自己的第一部小说如何不成功。为重新开始,为与失败的小说有个地理上的了结以便有精神上的了结,作者远赴国外。在国外遇到不少人。听说他是作家,有不少人会讲述自以为很神奇的故事,希望作者也许会感兴趣,日后会将故事写入小说。作者一点都不感兴趣。事...
评分Life of Pi是一本我特别喜欢的书。2002年Man Booker奖的获奖书,这本书带给我的将是终身难忘的阅读体验。 一个13岁的男孩Pi,在从印度到美国的海上行程中不幸遭遇海难,他的家人(父母和一个弟弟)全部遇难,Pi侥幸地落到一艘救生艇中,开始了独自一人在太平洋中漂流了三百多...
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...
评分若不是因为布克奖的缘故,我很可能会将之当成一本讲圆周率的数学普及读本而不幸错过。然而圆周率也未尝同整本小说没有关联,Yann Martel在一篇采访中说:“我选择Pi这个名字,是因为这是个不理性(irrational)的数字,然而科学家们还是利用这个不理性的数字达成对宇宙的理性认...
