Life of Pi by Yann Martel

Life of Pi is an internationally acclaimed bestseller that blends adventure, survival, and the power of storytelling. After a cargo ship sinks, sixteen-year-old Pi Patel finds himself stranded on a lifeboat in the Pacific Ocean with a hyena, a zebra, an orangutan, and a 450-pound Bengal tiger named Richard Parker. Over 227 harrowing days, Pi must rely on his wit, courage, and faith to coexist with the tiger while lost at sea. When rescued, Pi tells two stories—one fantastical, one more conventional—leaving readers to question the nature of truth and the power of belief. Yann Martel’s modern classic explores themes of faith, survival, and the redemptive power of storytelling.
