The son of a zookeeper, Pi Patel has an encyclopedic knowledge of animal behavior and a fervent love of stories. 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 while 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?

读后感

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...  

读完Life of Pi，厘清了不少看完电影后产生的困惑，也愈加佩服Yann Martel。他不仅讲了一个精彩的故事，而且文笔出色，读的时候经常有满满一页都想抄到笔记本上的冲动。 不少人读完此书后，花了大笔精力探讨第一、第二个故事孰真孰假。可我却觉得，全书的前1/3更值得细细品味。...  

"Life of Pi" is just a fun read with quite a few memorable details, but on the whole the author is still immature as a writer in that, he tries too hard to mask the "truth" with gimmicks in story-telling, and he loses sight of the real depth of the truth, a...

用户评价

大段的海上求生读着读着会让人觉得跟Pi一样看不到希望的前方。。。对速读者是个挑战。

书中关于Pi宗教信仰方面的故事比重比电影的大，处理的幽默诙谐；海难中的所有事都和Pi在印度的生活息息相关。读完后觉得，相较于探寻外部世界，宗教更像是探寻内心。

必将成为一部当代经典。
