Yann Martel
Life of Pi is a masterful and utterly original novel that is at once the story of a young castaway who faces immeasurable hardships on the high seas, and a meditation on religion, faith, art and life that is as witty as it is profound. Using the threads of all of our best stories, Yann Martel has woven a glorious spiritual adventure that makes us question what it means to be alive, and to believe.

"The beginning will be rough if you’re not religious, though this book was insanely well-written and thorough. Yann Martel did some excellent research and it shows. Part two, where every chapter held a lot of the same things, still kept me hooked. There are hundreds of moments in this book that intrigued me. I would recommend this book to anyone who enjoys adventure and unique storytelling. "
"I never read a book quite like this one! It is original and a great book club pick."
