Title: Shocked, But Not Awed
Review: At its base this is an extraordinary story of how a boy and a Bengal tiger survived at sea, alone for seven months. But however courageous and persevering the protagonists, the tale is gruesome. The tiger and boy survive, but the carnage is rampant. Far from "making one believe in God" (per dust jacket), it is more likely you will experience the fear of God. This is a tale of survival--grim, brutal, and violent. The violence is overwhelming; so much so that I came to the point where I dreaded to turn the page, not knowing what violent wrenching carnage would occur next.I respect the fact that survival in these circumstances is brutal. But the story is told with little compassion and is almost bestial in nature. It is man at his lowest ebb, man as beast, man devoid of God. The idea and plot line are exceptional, but the execution is cold, violent, and base.
