I can relate to the main character, Pi, because I can understand other religions. However, I don't participate in several different religions like Pi does.

End
I find that the main character, Pi, is close to insane, and so do his interviewers. I can't relate to him because I usually don't change people into animals in order to tell a story or vice versa. I am questioning which story that Pi told is the true story, considering that he was on a boat with a lot of animals. I found that this entire story was quite moving and it taught a lot of lessons about life. (And what to do if you are ever on a lifeboat in the middle of the Pacific with a bengal tiger.) This was a very good story (towards the end) that tells about Pi Patel's 277 day journey on a lifeboat in the Pacific. With a bengal tiger. Pi is a very strange 16-year-old who practices three different religions and that helps him to get through his long journey. I believe that the deeper meaning of this story is showing how you can perserveer even through the toughest of times. I definitely got that out of the book. I would reccomend this book to anyone who likes books that are written for the specific purpose of a philisophical meaning.
