DESCRIPTION
When Salman Rushdie writes, the world sits up and notices. And responds. Focused on this celebrated fictionist, the volume under study revaluates all his novels published todate; from the first Grimus to the latest The Enchantress of Florence. The critique of his most widely read and discussed Midnight's Children which won him all the three Booker prizes, understandably runs into greater space, spanning four of the 18 essays of this volume. Penned by discerning scholars from teh USA, the UK and India, this study both interrogates teh validity of prevailing critical perspectives on Rushdie's work and unfolds fresh discourses on it.
