now, let me tell you what makes this book so interesting. this book is about a 16-years-old boy named Piscine Molitor Patel (Pi) who managed to survive the 227 days in a lifeboat after his ship sunk. not interesting enough? well, he also had companions in the life boat- an orangutan, a zebra with, a hyena and of course a 450 lb bengal tiger!.
this book is divided into three parts- the first part told you the background of pi and his family, the second about pi struggle to survive the Atlantic ocean and the third part was the story after his survival and the conclusion which really amazed me.
in addition, the theme of this book is not just about survival but also about faith. growing up in india, pi has created a fondness for religion. as a result, he decided to practice three religions- islam, christian and hindu - SIMULTANEOUSLY! there`s this funny scene when the three religious leader- the imaam, the priest and the pundit altogether met pi with his family at the park. that`s when pi`s polygamous practice of religion be known. it`s very funny really when the three leaders debated with each other about who`s religion was best.
this book which had been called the story that will make you believe in god is truly filled with wisdom and humor . it was even hailed as a modern classic and i truly believe that it deserved that title.
p.s: gosh! i truly loved this book, going to buy new copy for myself and re-read it. yo, take good care of my book yup? hehehe
