The synopsis of The Satanic Verses:
Just before dawn one winter's morning a hijacked jumbo-jet blows apart high above the English Channel. Through the debris of limbs, drinks trolleys, memories, blankets and oxygen masks, two figures fall towards the sea without the benefit of parachutes: Gibreel Farishta, India's legendary movie star, and Saladin Chamcha, the man of a thousand voices, self-made self and Anglophile supreme. Clinging to each other, singing rival songs, they plunge downward, and are finally washed up, alive, on the snow covered sands of an English beach. A miracle; but an ambiguous one, because it soon becomes apparent that curious changes are coming over them. Gibreel seems to have acquired a halo, while, to Saladin's dismay, his legs grow hairier, his feet turn into hoofs, and there are bumps burgeoning at his temples.

Gibreel and Saladin have been chosen (by whom?) as protaganists in the eternal wrestling match between Good and Evil. But which is which? Can demons be angelic? Can angels be devils in disguise? As the two men tumble through their tale, through time as well as space, towards their final confrontation, we are witnesses to a cycle of extraordinary stories, tales of love and passion, of betrayal and faith: the story of Ayesha, the butterfly-shrouded visionary who leads an Indian village on an impossible pilgrimage; al Allie, the mountain-climber haunted by a ghost who urges him to attempt the ultimate feat - a solo ascent of Everest; of murders, metamorphoses and riots in a London 'visible but unseen'; and centrally, the story of Mahound, the Prophet of Jahilia, the city of sand - Mahound, the recipient or a revelation in which satanic verses mingle with the divine.

In this great wheel of a book, where the past and the future chase each other furiously, Salman Rushdie takes us on an epic journey, a journey of tears and laughter, of wonderful stories and astonishing flights of the imagination. a journey towards the evil and the good that lie inseperably entwined within the hearts of women and of men.

Answer 2

the information is very exciting with regard to the money minded and self-concentrated hypocrite Salman Rushdie. purely now the so referred to as absolute freedom enthusiasts in uk who had fun whilst Rushdie’s concoction Satanic Verses advance into printed, understand the genuine shade of Rushdie. They out of sick-will, unreasonably, prejudicially supported him because of the fact he attacked Islam the subculture to which Rushdie’s mothers and fathers belonged to, yet now they hate him because of the fact the comparable Rushdie has started criticising the respected British custom of monarchy as stupid and archaic. Rushdie’s bodyguard Ron Evans has written a e book( call On Her Majesty’s Sevice) that Rushdie says that it contains derogatory words, it defames people, it rather is full of grime and lies and fiction. Why no longer salman Rushdie settle for Ron Evans e book below the banner of freedom of speech, why ought to he hate the e book and the author? there's a stable smell of hypocrisy in what Rusgdie says.

Answer 3

Well he's written quite a few books... But he got that fatwa because of "Satanic Verses" - have no idea what that book is about except that it offends Muslims terribly.
His other famous work is "Midnights Children" a novel set in India...nice read....he has also written a childrens book - "Haroun and the Sea of Stories" which is a really well written book.

Answer 4

He has written many books that are good. Satanic Verses, Midnight's Children, and many more... Satanic Verses and Midnight's Children are both a tough read but are really worth reading. Midnight's Children is absolutely the best book I've ever read.

Answer 5

the satanic verses and the midnight's children are just a couple of the books that salman rushdie has written....and all of his books are highly acclaimed.
