From the back cover:

After the sinking of a cargo ship, a single solitary lifeboat remains bobbing on the surface of teh wild, blue Pacific. The rew of teh surviving vessel consists of a hyena, an orang-utan, a zebra with a broken leg, a 450-pound Royal Bengal tiger and Pi Patel, a 16-year-old Indian boy. The stage is set for one o fthe most extraordinary pieces of literary fiction in recent years, a novel of such rare and wondrous storytelling that it may, as one character caims, make you believe in God. Can a reader resonably ask for anything more?

It''s been a while since I read this, but I remember that I was completely enthralled with this fantastical story.

RELEASE NOTES:

On a table in the Nova Scotia Cancer Centre waiting room.

A friend gave me the book and now I am passing it on to another friend......though leaving it in a public place for someone to pick up sounds much better but too late....a friend is expecting that it is coming her way. I'll have her leave it in a public place and from there who knows where the book will go.
