Title: “The Life of Pi” Point-of-View: 1​st

person

The ship sank. It made a sound like a ​monstrous metallic burp​.

Things bubbled at the surface and then vanished.
Everything was screaming: the sea, the wind, my heart. From the
lifeboat I saw something in the water.
I cried, "Richard Parker, is that you? It's so hard to see. Oh, that
this rain would stop! Richard Parker? Richard Parker? Yes, it is you!"
I could see his head. He was struggling to stay at the surface of
the water.
 "Jesus, Mary, Muhammad and Vishnu, how good to see you,
Richard Parker! Don't give up, please. Come to the lifeboat. Do you
hear this whistle?”
TREEEEEE! TREEEEEE! TREEEEEE!

--From “The Life of Pi” by Yan Martel
