Part 1 Chapter 18 Summary
Nearly a year later, Pi discovered Islam. He was out one day exploring his town and happened upon the Muslim quarter of town. He was drawn to a mosque and had a peek inside. He saw a large open room, the sanctuary, with long straw mats covering the floor. He continued on his tour of the Muslim quarter and happened upon a very small shop that was selling small flat breads. After gaining the attention of the shopkeeper, they began to talk.
