Pi in the Sky?

Just finished reading Life of Pi by Yann Martell. An amazing story, of an Indian teenager who survives over 200 days at sea in a lifeboat with a Bengal Tiger.

Is it all true, or just some of it? I'm not going to spoil it, so if you haven't read the book, I suggest stopping here. Then, if you really must, you can go to this blog entry http://www.simplebits.com/notebook/2003/02/17/life_of_pi.html

and this article by Yann Martell

Highly recommended. What starts as a good book becomes a great book by the end.
