A key novel of this century and one of the most controversial. Amid
the myriad characters in this dream within fiction is one based on
the prophet Muhammad, which throws him and his transcriptions of
the Koran in a dubious light. As a result, the book was condemned
by the Ayatollah Khomeini and Rushdie's execution demanded. Only in
1998 was the fatwa lifted, enabling the author to come out of
hiding. (Kirkus UK)
'A masterpiece' Sunday Times Just before dawn one winter's morning,
a aeroplane blows apart high above the English Channel and two
figures tumble, clutched in an embrace, towards the sea: Gibreel
Farishta, India's legendary movie star, and Saladin Chamcha, the
man of a thousand voices. Washed up, alive, on an English beach,
their survival is a miracle. But there is a price to pay. Gibreel
and Saladin have been chosen as opponents in the eternal wrestling
match between Good and Evil. But chosen by whom? And which is
which? And what will be the outcome of their final confrontation?
'A great novelist, a master of perpetual storytelling' V.S.
