Comparing The Narrators in Life of Pi and The Lottery

When authors begin to influence readers' lives, they often need to diversify their literary dimensions. It is easy to meet many differences and similarities in literature as people dig into too many works. Among the book "Life of Pi", the writer Yann Martel uses a different first person viewpoint to accurately depict the sensation of panic and urgency in certain situations; disadvantageously, Shirley Jackson's short story In "The Lottery" think about a viewpoint of an independent third party to delay the reader to a long and hard trip that the related family must endure.

Pi is a participating narrator of "Life of Pi". Pi is a middle-aged man who became the backbone of the story with flash forward. The author's memo is that the first person is written by the author and the first part and the second part are described first by Pi The third part is mainly the dialogue record between Pi and Japanese officials . When Pi is listed on the first person, he is an objective narrator. The two themes of "The Skin of Life" are the importance of living will and story. Even if you need brutal action, creatures sometimes do their best to maintain life. All living things on lifeboats are fighting death. Orange juice, the boat orangutan does all the possible things to fight hyena. The injured zebra fought in the sea. Pi strictly keeps food of vegetarianism and eats fish to avoid hunger

Pi Patel is a narrator of Yann Martel 's Life of Pi published in 2001, and is another example of an untrusted narrator. After drifting in the ocean for a few days, he explained about some strange incidents and his lifeboat is shared with zebra, orangutan, hyena (killing zebra and orangutan) and Bengal tiger (killing hyena) . When they cast doubts on their story, he said that the mariners and Pi's mother were murdered by a similar food boat chef and the alternative, darker or more trust that Pi was killed and eaten to survive We provided stories of possible events. . Rescue workers notice the similarity of humans and animals, zebras represent seafarers, orangutans represent mothers of Pi, hyenas represent chefs, and tigers represent themselves.

Pi's life is told like The Gathering. He is the only narrator, so the reader can see what he is doing. The problem is that Pi's reaction and overly simple event analysis methods are not realistic. Pi is an unreliable narrator, so if the story is told from the perspective of a third party's omniscience, that book will not appear. The first part of this book aims to force the reader to believe in God, but which one do you choose? Since Pi believes in three religions simultaneously, we believe that he is not fully devoted to religion. I believe that Pi can live with three religions to predict his untrustworthy quality by believing from the bottom of my heart. Even his mother said to him that many religions are unrealistic when he said, "If you want to become a religious believer, you must become a Hindus, Christian, or Muslim" I tried to convince you. Three religions are willing to serve every religion, which is unrealistic.
