Question

Could someone read this and tell me what you think?

Answer 1

Dear Mr. Yann Martel, I recently read your wonderful book, Life of Pi, and absolutely loved if from beginning to end, for several reasons. I’ll begin with the plot; fairly simple, yet very interesting at the same time. That was one reason why I liked is so much, I learned a lot from the book, and not just about zoo animals, but about the will to survive, the different kinds of people in life, and the importance of story-telling. Apart from this, I really appreciated how you took a straightforward idea, but turned it into so much more, with many different underlying angles. And although the beginning, and some other parts in the book, might have been drawn out too long for some people, I found the balance between detail and excitement just right. For example, the “magical” island with the millions of meerkats. Just when reading that makes thoughts begin to swirl in my mind. I remember clearly how I reacted while reading that section. As Pi was on the last lines of life, he found this “life saving” island, and I felt my heart swelling with joy, but then the unexplained mysteries of the island slowly crept up on both him and I and I remember being just as scared as Pi of the unknown. To really bring a reader into a scene like that takes a lot of skill. And then of course there is Pi himself. Who could not love Piscine “Pissing” Molitor Patel with his pure innocence yet great knowledge, which he proves to us on several occasions. Many times during the book I would burst out laughing because of his quirky sense of humor. At the beginning of the book, I found the language of Pi rather abnormal, but quickly got used to it. Then, at the end, where he gets interviewed by the two Japanese men, you realize again, that from the outside world he could indeed be considered a bit strange. However just like the readers, the two men also begin to adjust to his behavior, and realize just how intelligent he is. Without his character I don’t think the book could have been as accomplished as it is, as he is the one who narrates basically the whole story. He is a true role model, and the way he sees good in everybody is admirable. I found it quite nice how he practiced three different religions, even though everybody was against it, because he found all three good in their own way. The language in which you write the book is hard to describe: on the one hand, it is so delicate, but on the other hand so sturdy. Reading the book felt like I was being treated to something very special. With every chapter you made me think about what kind of person I really am according to Pi, with words that lingered. On top of that, they also painted the clearest pictures imaginable in my head, so that I could again, feel myself in the story. When Pi was thirsty so was I, when Pi was happy so was I, when Pi touched the salt water, I felt it too. However, out of all of these things, like the beautiful language that put you along side the well thought out main character or most every detail you added not one of them is the main reason I fell in love with the book. Because after I experienced everything along the way with Pi, all the emotions, both good and bad, when I deeply hoped that he soon would be rescued, everything, I realized that the book is not what I thought it was. The last few moments changed the story forever, and I will always feel a little ache in my heart, as Richard Parker walked away. So in conclusion to this letter, I would like to thank you for writing this extraordinary piece of literature, which I will continue to recommend to everyone I know my whole life, as I am sure to not forget about it.
