Ringkasan
"Life of Pi" is a novel about Pi Patel, a young Indian boy who survives a shipwreck and is stranded on a lifeboat in the Pacific Ocean with a Bengal tiger named Richard Parker. Over 227 days, Pi must learn to survive while also keeping the tiger alive and at bay. He uses his knowledge, courage, and deep faith in God (drawing from Hinduism, Christianity, and Islam) to stay strong. When rescued, no one believes his animal story, so he tells a second, darker version involving humans. The novel leaves it to the reader to decide which story is true—highlighting themes of faith, survival, and the power of storytelling.
