Life of Pi A Novel
The son of a zookeeper, Pi Patel has an encyclopedic knowledge of animal behavior and a fervent love of stories. When Pi is sixteen, his family emigrates from India to North America aboard a Japanese cargo ship, along with their zoo animals bound for new homes. The ship sinks. Pi finds himself alone in a lifeboat, his only companions a hyena, an orangutan, a wounded zebra, and Richard Parker, a 450-pound Bengal tiger. Soon the tiger has dispatched all but Pi, whose fear, knowledge, and cunning allow him to coexist with Richard Parker for 227 days while lost at sea. When they finally revery the coast of Mexico, Richard Parker flees to the jungle, never to be seen again. The Japanese authorities who interrogate Pi refuse to believe his story and press him to tell them 'the truth.' After hours of coercion, Pi tells a second story, a story much less fantastical, much more conventional--but is it more true? - Category: Books Reading - New Item: 461513336

In the Heart of the Sea The Tragedy of the Whaleship Essex
The ordeal of the whaleship Essex was an event as mythic in the nineteenth century as the sinking of the Titanic was in the twentieth. In 1819, the Essex left Nantucket for the South Pacific with twenty crew members aboard. In the middle of the South Pacific the ship was rammed and sunk by an angry sperm whale. The crew drifted for more than ninety days in three tiny whaleboats, succumbing to weather, hunger, disease, and ultimately turning to drastic measures in the fight for survival. Nathaniel Philbrick uses little-known documents-including a long-lost account written by the ship's cabin boy-and penetrating details about whaling and the Nantucket community to reveal the chilling events surrounding this epic maritime disaster. An intense and mesmerizing read, In the Heart of the Sea is a monumental work of history forever placing the Essex tragedy in the American historical canon. - Category: Books Reading - New Item: 461720165

Party Favours
Is the truth stranger than fiction? A scandalous tale of political skulduggery Just when you thought it was safe to trust politicians again comes this entertaining new novel of hijinks in very high places. Viciously funny and explosive in its revelations, Party Favours captures that heady mix of power and sex that fuels the political process and has seen the end of many an aspiring politician. A new Liberal government under the leadership of Bobby Laurier has just been elected, signalling the end of a decade of Tory rule, and an ambitious but naive young journalist is about to receive a political education. Fresh from the West, Chris O'Reilly quickly finds himself initiated into the ways of Ottawa. Drawn into a political labyrinth, backroom intrigue and ministerial backstabbing, he stumbles across the scoop of the decade. But can he reveal it and survive? Is he being set up? Is there anyone he can trust? Will he succumb to the temptations all around him? Party Favours unfolds an intriguing and highly entertaining tale of greed, passion and power set against a backdrop of life on Parliament Hill. It's filled with a cast of memorable (and sometimes strangely familiar) characters -- lascivious personal assistants, dotty Senators, ambitious politicians, over-inflated media commentators, Blocheads, failed prime ministers, corrupt lobbyists. Like members of a large feuding family, these people are constantly looking for the rewards they feel are their due But they are really trapped in an invisible web of intrigue spreading from the Prime Minister's Office, where, seemingly oblivious to the affairs of state, an amiable if slightly befuddled leader worries about his golf game. Writtenby one who is completely at home in the corridors of power but who prefers to remain anonymous, Party Favours reveals that the truth is not stranger than fiction. Don't miss the most entertaining guessing game of the season! - Category: Books Reading - New Item: 461509695
