Very Good Condition - Sticker on front cover and price sticker on back, light rubbing to edges.

When a cargo ship carrying his family and their zoo animals sinks in the Pacific, sixteen-year-old Pi Patel finds himself aboard a lifeboat with a zebra, a hyena, an orangutan and a Bengal tiger. As the voyage becomes a desperate struggle to stay alive, Pi must draw on his knowledge of animals, his resourcefulness and his unusual understanding of faith. The ocean offers beauty and terror in equal measure, and his most dangerous companion also becomes central to his endurance. Yann Martel's novel turns an astonishing sea adventure into a meditation on belief, storytelling and the versions of events through which people make sense of the unimaginable.
