<font size=3>Aren't all the islands on Perelandra made up of floating

<blockquote type=cite class=cite cite="">It just seems to me that Horn
gives a very 'alien' description of the Island that is made out of
floating plants then he gives for any other Island. It seems clear
he would, after that point, be able to notice the difference.<br><br>
In any event, it is an interesting subject!<br><br>
Has any else read Life of Pi? I'm always struck by how that book
also has an Island made up of floating plants....<br><br>

<dd>I merely believe it is evidence that some of the land mass of the
islands are composed of giant trees. Whether or not it is that one,
there are islands made up of trees on Blue, which means that the other
island chain with the pit might be equally vegetable in nature, whether
it is the same one Horn sees or not.<br>

<dd>Aren't you confusing two different Islands? The one you are
talking about is the one with the lake which contains the monster that
attacks Babbie and He. He doesn't even have Seawrack at that
point. The Pit Island I remember as more of a standard
Island.<br><br>
<dd>Is that incorrect?<br><br>

<dd>a few weeks ago I made the claim the island of the pit on blue was
composed of trees. I am always travelling and so did not have
access to my books until now. On page 161 of oBW, chapter 6, the
storm shakes up the islands and reveals to Horn that they are actually
composed of "giant herbs" that are not trees or ferns but have
the nature of them, and that Babbie and he walked on the branches and
leaves believing them to be ground.<br><br>
<dd>Just a bit more hinting that the pit Horn falls in might be the maw
of one such ocean growing herb.<br><br>
