Re: What Are You Reading?
Just finished Yann Martel's "Life of Pi" for the first time - only 5 years too late!
I really liked it, I love his dialogue and sense of humour and pathos and I loved what he did with the 2 different versions of events - that whole idea that the narration of every expereience is an interpretation in the telling. I also liked what he did with the structure, how he made links between events as he went along which you don't really understand at first. Clever writer. |

Re: What Are You Reading?
Its an amazing book...and its all science. Its about how perfect this world is and how it cant be coincidental that we exist.
