Life of Pi, by Yann Martel
How
to be Good
by Nick
Hornby
"Life of Pi is a real adventure: brutal, tender, expressive, dramatic, and disarmingly funny. . . . It's difficult to stop reading when the pages run out."
--San Francisco Chronicle
"The pleasure of Hornby's amiably dyspeptic fiction lies in his sharp eye for the absurdities of contemporary culture. . . . [He] forces you to think about the tense bourgeois minuet between self-interest and morality, about the difference between applauding and doing good works. . . . The result is a farce that manages to be breezily hilarious and thought-provoking at the same time."
--New York Magazine
