This month, the Guardian book club is concentrating on Yann Martel's Booker prize-winning novel, Life of Pi. Martel came to the Guardian on Wednesday night to talk about his book with UCL professor of English John Mullan. Listen to them discussing framed narratives, the many kinds of truths contained in fiction, and whether the relationship between Pi and Richard Parker is a metaphor for marriage or stamp-collecting, in our podcast of the event.
