Reviews
Winner of the 2002 Man Booker Prize for Fiction "Let me tell you a secret: the name of the greatest living writer of the generation born in the sixties is Yann Martel."-- L'Humanité "A story to make you believe in the soul-sustaining power of fiction and its human creators, and in the original power of storytellers like Martel." -- Los Angeles Times Book Review "If this century produces a classic work of survival literature, Martel is surely a contender.'--The Nation "Beautifully fantastical and spirited." -- Salon "Martel displays the clever voice and tremendous storytelling skills of an emerging master." --Publishers Weekly "[Life of Pi] could renew your faith in the ability of novelists to invest even the most outrageous scenario with plausible life." -- The New York Times Book Review "Audacious, exhilarating . . . wonderful. The book's middle section might be the most gripping 200 pages in recent Canadian fiction. It also stands up against some of Martel's more obvious influences: Edgar Allen Poe's The Narrative of Arthur Gordon Pym , the novels of H. G. Wells, certain stretches of Moby Dick ."-- Quill & Quire, PRAISE FOR LIFE OF PI " Life of Pi could renew your faith in the ability of novelists to invest even the most outrageous scenario with plausible life."- The New York Times Book Review "A story to make you believe in the soul-sustaining power of fiction."- Los Angeles Times Book Review "A gripping adventure story . . . Laced with wit, spiced with terror, it's a book by an extraordinary talent."- St. Paul Pioneer-Press "A terrific book . . . Fresh, original, smart, devious, and crammed with absorbing lore."- Margaret Atwood "An impassioned defense of zoos, a death-defying trans-Pacific sea adventure a la Kon-Tiki , and a hilarious shaggy-dog story . . . : This audacious novel manages to be all of these." - The New Yorker "Readers familiar with Margaret Atwood, Mavis Gallant, Alice Munro, Michael Ondaatje and Carol Shields should learn to make room on the map of contemporary Canadian fiction for the formidable Yann Martel." - Chicago Tribune, PRAISE FORLIFE OF PI "Life of Picould renew your faith in the ability of novelists to invest even the most outrageous scenario with plausible life."-The New York Times Book Review "A story to make you believe in the soul-sustaining power of fiction."-Los Angeles Times Book Review "A gripping adventure story . . .

Avis les plus pertinents

  • Full of adventure and suspenseful...

    A wonderful gripping and suspenseful tale of adventure ala Kon Tiki style. The first few chapters do drag just a bit, but it was necessary for the author to explain Pi's background, beliefs, family, etc. in order for us to understand the main character in his time of diress during his shipwreck voyage. After that, I literally could not put the book down. I had to find out how Pi managed to survive after many months at sea with a tiger. I really liked how the author wrote some chapters in italics, which would indicate a "flash forward" moment when Pi was a much older man. It gave us just a glimpse of how he fared years later. Pi was a very likable character. Very funny in some places and his way of thinking. The back of the book also has book club discussion questions, so would be a perfect ...

  • eh...not yet impressed

    One of my good friends suggested I read Life Of Pi. He insisted it was fabulous, had great thoughts, and that I would love it. Now, it might just be one of those books that starts off kind of slow, or maybe it's just not my cup of tea. But after completing the first book (it's separated into three books), I'm still not feeling it. I'm going to force myself to read the rest, but it's definitely not one of those books I just can't put down. I'll try to remember to write another review once I complete the novel to let you know if it improves. It's well written and does include interesting information, I just feel that it's dragging on. However, I am confident that it will improve, which is why I'm not giving up on it completely.

  • The book has a lot of writing in it, too much to be able to use it. I will have to get a different copy.

  • Life of Pi by Yann Martel (2003)

    This was an excellent book; well written with culturally appropriate details reminiscent of India. The author has the uncanny ability to grafically capture the mind and heart of the main character; the end is shocking, surprising and leaves one with a sense of uncertainty about what is the real story in the book (there are two plots). The book was recommended to me by a friend and I highly recommend it.

  • A must read

    I enjoyed the movie, and I thoroughly enjoyed the Broadway Play but I wanted to go further into the Life of Pi and the only way in doing so was to read the book. I am not disappointed at all. The book has given me a lot to think about concerning acceptance, diversity, kindness, and humanity. I totally recommend it.
