I. “My brother and I were no longer safe in the city.

Alexander Solzhenitsyn once stated that, “Good literature substitutes for an experience which we have not ourselves lived through.” The quote means that a good piece of writing will give readers the feel and the experience of a situation that they have not been through. It also means that if if they haven't been through something, a good piece of literature will substitute for that and make it feel like they were there. Good literature should also be able to take readers anywhere and any places - and make us experience something we’ve never been able to!! It will make the readers feel the emotion, the feel, and the ambiance of what is happening - almost as if they were there themselves.
There are all sorts of different ways we can infer, or physically understand the boundaries on Life of Pi. The obvious ones seen in the graphic organizer are the physical boundaries such as the cages that are separating the animals in the zoo.

Emotionally, Pi has to face the boundaries of becoming more independent as he grows older.
