Reading Yann Martel and Tomislav Torjanac: Life of Pi: Deluxe Illustrated

If you've ever wondered what Yann Martel's Booker-winning novel Life of Pi would look like in reality, wonder no further — Martel's vision comes to life through the 40 digitally enhanced paintings of Croatian illustrator Tomislav Torjanac. Chosen from a heavily entered contest launched last year by indie publisher Canongate, Torjanac's first-person account of Martel's tall tale doesn't merely illustrate the story, it illuminates it. Which means that now you won't have to wait till Amelie director Jean-Pierre Jeunet's big-screen interpretation of the book to see how far imaginative collaboration can stretch.
