This is certainly a book unlike many I have read before. While you may get the impression that this book is solely about the journey of a boy and his struggle to survive in a lifeboat in the Pacific, this is really so much more than that. Martel's main character has unique views on religion, and this may make you consider your own more carefully. It's really a good book, and it ought to be read. It makes you think in addition to having a great story.
