This hardback, slipcasededitionis signed by Yann Martel and illustrator Tomislav Torjanac"Life ofPi" needs little introduction. Since it was firstpublished in 2002it has entered mainstream consciousness andremains one of the mostextraordinary works of fiction in recentyears. In October 2005Canongate launched a competition with "TheTimes" to find an artistto illustrate Yann Martel's internationalbestseller. Soon thecompetition expanded as the "Globe and Mail"and "The Age"newspapers also launched a search in Canada andAustralia. Fromthousands of entries, Croatian artist TomislavTorjanac was chosenas the illustrator for this new edition of"Life of Pi". 'My visionof the illustrated edition of "Life of Pi"is based on paintingsfrom a first person's perspective - Pi'sperspective. Theinterpretation of what Pi sees is intermeshed withwhat he feels andit is shown through use of colours, perspective,symbols, handgestures, etc.' The idea behind this approach is akind of anextension of Mr. Martel's idea as expressed in thisquote: "Itseemed natural that Mr. Patel's story should be toldmostly in thefirst person - in his voice and through his eyes. Butanyinaccuracies or mistakes are mine".(TomislavTorjanac).
