It’s the story of an Indian teenager who grows up in the 60s and 70s, the son of a zookeeper. When his family decides to emigrate to Canada, they crate up all the sold animals and embark on a giant tanker ship across the Pacific. After the ship sinks in a storm in the middle of the night, Pi is left alone on a lifeboat with a tiger, a hyena, a chimpanzee, and a wounded zebra. How could he possibly make it more than 250 days without being eaten alive?
Life of Pi has sold seven million copies worldwide, won several prizes and has been translated into 41 languages.
