He promises at the beginning that this story will make you believe in God. With the emotional depths he reaches inside the reader, Pi proves this to be absolutely true. Consequently, Pi makes you believe anything he says. He's a smart boy and a seeker of love in as many religions that allow him to express it. I warmed to him immediately, the way he took everything in with a quiet and non-judgemental observance. Pi, despite everything around him a chaos enough to quicken the reader's heartbeat and cheer outloud for his success, is a steadfast and methodical son, brother and sailor. He is many other things, but above all, Pi is a trainer and he trains himself to survive above many miraculous odds. One of those odds is Richard Parker. Without going into much detail about Richard Parker, I will only say that, mirrored in Pi's own eyes, his most wise and repectable eyes, I too love Richard Parker. Without him this story would have lacked so much and told so little. When you add an element of animal to the story, all expectations are thrown out the boat, so to speak. And what an animal! "He was simply taking me in, observing me, in a manner that was sober but not menacing. He kept twitching his ears and varying the sideways turn of his head. It was all, so, well, catlike. He looked like a nice, big, fat domestic cat, a 450-pound tabby." That is one of my favorite illustrations of Richard Parker. Right before he divulges a friendly "Prusten" to let Pi know he was not alone. Pi would never be alone.

I love to read about writing. I picked this up at the library, and honestly, it's very good. My complaint is that I picked it up specifically for help with fantasy writing, and a huge majority of it is dedicated solely to science fiction. If the author wanted to write a book on science fiction writing, he should have! I get the feeling his editor told him to stick some fantasy chapters in there just to get more people to buy it.

Ok, this is completely embarrassing, but I've read this entire series and I loved it! It's an indulgently trashy guilty pleasure and I highly recommend it. Perhaps good summer reading.

Kind of fun to read but have to remember it is fiction, not true!!! I enjoyed it more than I thought I would and wanted to keep reading but had to skim some passages because it got a little too harlequinish in places - describing the lovemaking, the gowns, and the pure paradise of the country farms. The way it was written made many of the characters unlikeable. Seemed to be written about women's rights from today's point of view. Took longer to tell the story than it needed to. It was a bookclub pick and I think everyone liked the book more than I did.

I read this book in like 4th grade and it was like the greatest thing I'd ever read at the time. If I read it again, I imagine I'd be less impressed.

I am currently rereading this and it is a lot of fun! I also note a way more intimate tone to my reviewing. ***** I was rereading my high school year book and someone (Carlo) made a comment about how I needed to stop being a loser who read books like Infinite Jest and start drinking. That was funny, although it was so hard to decipher his handwriting, it was almost not wroth reading. My dad used to subscribe to Newsweek and I read a review of this book and thought it sounded really cool--the part about teenagers, tennis and drug use. So Carla bought it for what must have been my 15th birthday. I loved this book and read it multiple times. Eveline is right it is very uneven and I cannot believe they let the cringeworthy ebonics section stand. But there are a lot of really touching moments and several compelling storylines. I feel like David Foster Wallace is very good at juggling humor and seriousness. This book will always hold a special place in my heart. But not enough to put it in alltime favorites. I think this is because I have never had a substance abuse problem. I do however watch too much TV, but still, this doesn't resonate enough to make an all time favorite. Looking back the characters that stayed with me the most seem kind of odd--Pemulis, I guess because he was the fish out of water at the school, not really the best tennis player and Orin and to some extent Joelle. Orin and Hal had a very long footnote conversation that I reread many many times.

Completely changed my philosophy of mind. Very accessibly, and anecdotally, takes a look at the ways a person's entire personality or concept of the world can be warped by simple and localized damage to the brain. Sacks is definitely playing the affable old med school prof here, spinning anecdotes into sweet little stories about the strange yet lovable people he's met in his research. Still, his writing is fantastically clear and the stories drag you in, from the man with no long term memory (so much stranger and more affecting than depicted in the movie Memento--and I love that movie), or the loss of the hidden sixth sense of knowing you're in your own body. If there's any clear starting point for someone interested in popular cognitive science, it's absolutely here. A little of the science has been surpassed since then, but the basics are all there and, and the discipline's way of looking at the mind is branded into your brain.

Fuck. No. This is the worst book ever written. Pure 100% bullshit. The only book I've ever burned.
