Title

Documentary Realism in Yann Martel’s Life of Pi

Abstract

Abstract In his 2002 Booker Prize winning novel, Life of Pi, Yann Martel weaves a fabulous story around postmodern issues such as degree of legitimacy of reason over imagination, science over religion, materialism over idealism, and fact over fiction. Told in a flashback mode, and by limiting himself to documentation, Yann Martel invites the readers to go with him through the survival story to draw their own conclusions. His ability to make Pi ‘document’ minute details, even under extreme threatening conditions, is an attempt at realism. The twisting of facts that he managed with aplomb, exonerates Yann Martel from simply duplicating Moacyr Scliar’s Max and the Cats, which he was accused of.
