Defiantly funny in the face of total devastation, but more than that, ever hopeful. I guess that last is the best part of strong faith. The important part. Inner piece and enduring hope. Here's the deal: I'm an agnostic. We get roasted inside *grin*. I could go a long while about the difference be...
Tym razem najpierw oglądnąłem film, a później sięgnąłem po książkę. I wcale nie żałuję. Do tego wszystkiego, kończąc lekturę, jak raz trafiła się powtórka filmu w telewizji. Oglądnąłem więc go po raz kolejny. I wcale nie żałuję. Zarówno powieść jak i jej ekranizacja, są bardzo dobrymi opowieściami, ...
'Life of Pi' made the World Book Night list for 2011 and rightly so. Martel has created a modern masterpiece, which is beautifully written. The storyline is unusual and all the more absorbing for it. The ending too is intriguing and though the movie interpretation is good, it can't do full justice t...
Czy można niezwykłą historię opisać w sposób niebywale... nudny? Po raz kolejny okazało się, że jest to możliwe i wcale nie trzeba się wysilać. O Pi słyszałem tyle, co w zwiastunach filmowych, czyli widziałem młodego Hindusa w szalupie ratunkowej z tygrysem. Całość okazała się trochę głębsza, lecz i...
I've been avoiding Yann Martel's Life of Pi since it was published. It's nothing personal. I avoid stories "that will make you believe in God" (x) like a person with a peanut allergy in a Thai restaurant. I finally caved when a colleague at my university's English department pushed it on me and told...
This is one of the most amazing books I've read so far. The ending stunned me. I found no words to describe it. Life of Pi has some magic in it, yet harsh and gory at the same time. Yann Martel did a great job.
i don't get the hype. must be a taste thing. I know people who love the book but cannot get into it myself. I like a good story that sucks me in. this book didn't do that.
Romanzo particolarissimo basato sulla surreale vicenda di un ragazzino indiano, Pi, che naufraga nel pacifico e trascorre circa 7 mesi su una scialuppa con la sola compagnia di una tigre del Bengala.La narrazione, sebbene a tratti tenda ad arenarsi, colpevole anche la difficoltà oggettiva di una scr...
Świetna książka! Najbardziej zachwycił mnie warsztat autora, to jak swobodnie posługiwał się słowami. Mimo dosyć poważnej treści, pozycja ta jest lekka i przyjemna. Względem samej fabuły: nietuzinkowa i zaskakująca. Uwielbiam gdy bohatera umieszcza się takich sytuacjach (pozornie patowych) – wtedy z...
