If anyone has read Salman Rushdie's work would like to know about his style of writing as I have heard that he has a more complex style. :unsure:
I have read his Satanic verses and Midnight's children and felt that he is overrated as a writer.If not for the controversy Satanic verses would never have become so popular nor made him so rich...It is banned in India !
I have only read Rushdie's Midnight's Children and I enjoyed reading it, although sometimes his writing can become very difficult to understand.
@ kalyani, repeating my post above .... :)
No problem Usha!! :) It was only because of the controversy he became so famous, otherwise I think there are many other writers who deserve that attention more than him!
I too feel the same, in fact the fundamentalists though issued a fatwa against have actually helped him financially and also gain a celebrity status,his book which was earlier priced much lower in UK, was hiked up the moment India and the Muslim countries banned the book..
