The breadth of her analysis of how our human worlds are made, remade, critiqued, opposed and defended made the listen compelling. Given what I have read of her prior work, this is both evidence of her notable intellect and her commitment to the freedom of humanity. The political critique is at its heart. I would not call it a “mass market book,” as some have, but it is challenging and exciting.

A quite wonderful if somewhat daunting listen(reading would be much more difficult). Led by a Muslim child of India’s independence in 1947 amid the promise of democracy in the wake of British colonial power threatened constantly by corruption and religious strife between Muslim and Hindu. We are led by Saleem Sinai, a Muslim boy and an enormous cast of characters, family and not. Rushdie certainly a master. You must be patient and love the sound of hearing his expert command of English told/spoken by Saleem and other characters, in character. The reader is masterful as well. This does not mean it is boring. Good luck!
