A phenomenally written book! Mr. Rushdie is a master of using metaphors and he went all in in this book. Weaving together multiple narratives, using India&amp;rsquo;s post-colonial history in a postmodern prose to deliver a magical realism masterpiece, there&amp;rsquo;s no wonder why this book was awarded as the Best of the Bookers.</description>
