Finished.. phew!
This took me forever.. I found it very dull up until the island. At the end it was interesting to find out the significance of the animals.

My question:
In the interview Pi asks the Japenese men how they would explain the meerkat bones in the boat. They say it could be mongoose bones but Pi says there were none on the ship..
What do you think the bones were from?

This book is going to sit in my subconscious for a while. I keep thinking about the meerkat island in particular, since it is strangely similar to some of my craziest dreams.

I think the end could’ve been lopped off, but other than that it’s a good, easy, surreal, imaginative, enjoyable read.

About half way done, and hoping the plot will thicken soon..

I can not invistion the boat what so ever.. is this a orange life boat that we often use or a sail boat or what? It doens’t look like this does it? and where exactly is the boie he is sitting on and how does that work? he’s not on the boat with the animals right?

an excellent book and one i’ve been meaning to read for some time. released into the wild about a week ago.

Gruesome, but very worthwhile.

My daughter gave me this book last year with a recommendation that I read it. It is one of the oddest books I have ever read, but it all comes together and becomes logical in the end.
