Title: The Life of Pi
Review: I bought this book because it was nominated for the Booker Prize. Frankly, after reading it I was surprised the Booker committee had picked Mr. Martel as the 2002 winner. The book starts out fine -- Pi is an engaging character with an interesting life in Pondicherry. However, half way through the novel, Mr. Martel kills off Pi's family in a shipwreck and then it becomes a gruesome tale of survival at sea with detail descriptions of evisceration.I really don't understand how some your readers described the second half of the book as an "incredible" journey. It was a bloody, horrible story. And why does the inside sleeve of the say it's such a "wondrous storytelling that it may make you believe in God." Give me a break!
