the Life of Pi
Just finished "The Life of Pi" by the Canadian writer Yann Martel, and it was just about everything I could ask for from a popular novel... The book lived up to and maybe even exceeded its really cool cover. But the story leaves me with a million questions. Did this really happen? Did some guy in a cafe in Pondicherry really bring the story to the author, or is that the creation of the author?
If anything even remotely similar to this story actually happened, that is amazing. And if it's just a story, what a great story. Either way this one is worth checking out.

The consensus seems to be that there is a blend of fact and fiction in the book. Good recommendation, will have to pick up a copy. I've been thinking about animal behavior lately, so this seems like a perfect fit.
