Salman Rushdie

[Becky Lindroos]

Omg - yes!  Imo,  that’s his best best work.  "Midnight’s Children" is close,  but it’s kind of harder in ways.  That said,  it won the Man Booker (1981),  the Booker of Bookers (1993), and the Best of the Bookers (2008).

The Moor’s Last Sigh” was good,  but "Fury," "Shame," and "The Ground Beneath Her Feet," were stupid. “Shalimar the Clown” was okay.  I rather enjoyed “The Enchantress of Florence,” although I am likely a minority.  Never read Grimus - the only novel by Rushdie I haven’t read.  His biography is pretty interesting although in places it sounds like a tribute to those who helped him in the fatwa and a trashing of those who didn’t.
