A great of twentieth century literature, now known to generations for A Time of Gifts and Between the Woods and the Water.
Il naufragio di Piscine Molitor Patel, un ragazzo indiano chiamato da tutti Pi, e quattro insoliti compagni di viaggio - una zebra ferita, un orango, una iena e una tigre - si trasforma in un'avventura sospesa tra realtà e magia. La sfida del protagonista sarà la sopravvivenza nonostante la sete, la fame, gli squali e la furia del mare. Un libro unico, un po' romanzo d'avventura e un po' favola surreale dall'inattesa anima nera.
Teenage meat-packer Delia Chapman's claim that she has encountered a group of aliens is at first considered temporary insanity because of the stresses of her job. For how else can her story, which gains her instand tabloid fame and the envy of her catty friends, be explained? Things get stranger when Delia realizes she's pregnant, but remembers little more of her supernatural experience than lights and noise. When two of Delia's friends also disclose their pregnancies and likewise blame the spacemen, the town of Opunake begins to buzz with reporters.
