Yann Martel, if this is really you, i need to tell you that you are an amazing writer. The only reason I joined this group was because you put up a message! I just finished an analytical paper on your novel Life of Pi using psychological and sociological aspects. This was definitrly the most interesting essay i have ever written! Thank You for the opportunity!
