About the Book

This book is a literary journey through Salman Rushdie's cross-pollinated gardens, showing that the metaphor of reading as a quest is essential to Rushdie's writing. It invites scholars and students interested in postcolonialism, postmodernism, transculturalism and the global novel to explore the many facets of Rushdie's novels and collections of essays. The journey starts from Rushdie's sorcery with language, and it continues with his appraisal of Joyce's legacy. The reader will also find an analysis of the dark season of the fatwa, as well as the lush sensuality of the body and aestheticized Eros in The Moor's Last Sigh, The Ground Beneath Her Feet, Fury, Shalimar the Clown and The Enchantress of Florence. The book further explores the liquid bridges, the postmodernist twist and postcolonial satire in Rushdie's fiction. After providing a sense of Rushdie's novel of "disorientation" and New York, the book finishes by exploring Rushdie's Quichotte, published in 2019, an epitome of the global novel that revisits and "translates" Cervantes's Don Quijote de la Mancha for readers addicted to TV and the Internet.
