A Booker Prize-Winning Survival Masterpiece of Pacific Shipwrecks, Bengal Tigers, and Faith

Sixteen-year-old Piscine Molitor "Pi" Patel, son of a zookeeper in Pondicherry, India, boards the Japanese cargo ship Tsimtsum with his family and their zoo animals bound for Canada in 1977. When the ship sinks during a storm in the Pacific Ocean, Pi becomes the sole human survivor on a 26-foot lifeboat.

Sharing the small vessel with a 450-pound Royal Bengal tiger named Richard Parker, a spotted hyena, a zebra, and an orangutan, Pi uses his knowledge of animal behavior and navigation to survive 227 days at sea before washing ashore in Mexico.

Why You’ll Love This Book

Yann Martel's Booker Prize-winning novel combines survival adventure with philosophical reflections on faith, story truth, and resilience. Essential reading for fans of Ernest Hemingway's The Old Man and the Sea, Cormac McCarthy, and Jose Saramago.
