<<<I liked the book.
Marnie read it and liked it. I leafed through it.
You want an odd shape, I very much enjoyed ch. 23, where Pi had been attending the services of three major religions,
without anyone knowing, "I was a practising Hindu, Christian and Muslim", and ends up in a meeting with the leaders of
those churches and his parents. (I don't know if my shape is as odd as Pi's, but one may hope . . .)
Despite Marnie's efforts to have me be more rounded, am too much of a square
peg to read that. The edges
are a bit nicked and perhaps even a bit of dry rot has set in, but no other
changes.
Is this the same Mike Gordon who posted, and I quote, ". . .but on second thought artistic license is in order. Don't
Let Slavish Depiction of the Truth Ruin a Good Story."
That last sentence is in my Quotes file.
