21st CENTURY FABLES
Yann Martel, the Man Booker Prize winner for the bestselling novel Life of Pi, appears at the Lectures with Beatrice & Virgil, a "Holocaust fable" that explores the limitations of language, our conceptions of self, and our capability to survive. Martel is an avid traveler, a scrupulous researcher, and a dedicated scholar of philosophy and religious studies. Published in forty-four countries, his work has gained international recognition. Before becoming a writer, Yann Martel was a man of many trades—a tree-planter, a dishwasher, and a security guard.
