No homo, and I haven't even read the entirety of "On The Road", but Jack Kerouac is fucking attractive. I think that how well they write definitely influences their attractiveness though. While I am willing to say very homosexual comments about Kerouac, I think "Life of Pi" is total rubbish, which makes Yann Martel look like even more of a douche.

It's true.

Yann Martel read a review of "Max and the Cats" by Moacyr Scliar, and thought "Hmm, what a great idea! I think I'll write a novel based on the same exact premise."

And then he wrote it--"Life of Pi."
