So, I’m going to start by saying that I have strep throat,
and when you have strep throat, EVERYTHING is more dreadful. Especially books
that bore me to begin with. L
The author’s note is pretty neat though, in describing how
he travelled and met Pi Patel and blah blah blah that isn’t real but written
well enough to be so. And now… Sloths,
sloths, and more sloths. I think that killed my ADHD/strep throat medicated/sleepy/bored
manner. Pi’s story is a very detailed, super realistic one. Personally, I like
the name Piscine (I’m a Pisces!), and the story of the zoos and learning to
swim. It’s a great insight into one’s life, especially with the atheist
communist teacher that reminds me of a story Mr. Sutton tells us, so I relate
to that! The multiple religions that Pi experienced becoming as he aged were
also incredible detailed, must have been well researched, but I can see where
the book would test faiths sometimes. However, I totally agree with his
agnostic hatred, I must say, and that I like how he decided on Christianity
when questioned about it later when confronted about being three religions.
Overall, the book was interesting, but VERY dull.
