Sir Ahmed Salman Rushdie, KBE (English pronunciation: /sælˈmɑːn ˈrʊʃdi/[1]; born 19 June 1947) is a British-Indian novelist and essayist. He achieved notability with his second novel, Midnight's Children (1981), which won the Booker Prize in 1981. Much of his fiction is set on the Indian subcontinent. His style is often classified as magical realism mixed with historical fiction, and a dominant theme of his work is the story of the many connections, disruptions and migrations between the Eastern and Western world.

His fourth novel, The Satanic Verses (1988), was the centre of The Satanic Verses controversy, with protests from Muslims in several countries. Some of the protests were violent, with Rushdie facing death threats and a fatwā issued by Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini, the Supreme Leader of Iran, in February 1989.

He was appointed a Knight Bachelor by Queen Elizabeth II for "services to literature" in June 2007.[2] He holds the rank Commandeur in the Ordre des Arts et des Lettres of France. He began a five-year term as Distinguished Writer in Residence at Emory University in 2007.[3] In May 2008 he was elected to the American Academy of Arts and Letters. In 2008, The Times ranked Rushdie thirteenth on their list of "The 50 greatest British writers since 1945".[4] His latest novel is The Enchantress of Florence, published in June 2008.[5]

Saleem Sinai was born at midnight, the midnight of India's independence, and found himself mysteriously 'handcuffed to history' by the coincidence. He is one of 1,001 children born at the midnight hour, each of them endowed with an extraordinary talent - and whose privilege and curse it is to be both master and victims of their times. Through Saleem's gifts - inner ear and wildly sensitive sense of smell - we are drawn into a fascinating family saga set against the vast, colourful background of the India of the 20th century.

◎鲁茫 未能免俗。几乎也是一气呵成看完了《午夜之子》。已经很久没有这种状态,因为太多的未完成排队似的摆在书架上。也许我该先吐槽,在九月买书买得太多,即使在这个亢奋之月的最后一个晚上,京东又让我“背叛”了自己一次,同时再次告诫自己:最后一次了,绝不能再有“剁...  

評分

本书是一部以文学方式叙述的印度现代史,作者以他丰富甚至狂野的想像力,呈现了印度丑恶与光荣兼具的纷繁面向:这块神秘次大陆及其人民的生活、命运、梦想和无奈。法国作家 米兰·昆德拉曾经这样赞叹道:自从鲁西迪的《午夜之子》在当时(一九八一年)唤起一致的欣赏后,盎格鲁-...

阅读《百年孤独》的时候,书里、网上都有齐全的人物列表。而《午夜之子》却没能找到现成的家族人物列表。自制树形图表方便以后的读者。(略有剧透,同时忽略了部分家族成员和在孟买时复杂的邻居关系。) 除了繁复的人物关系,本书的另一个阅读障碍要属念书时没有重点普及的印巴...

很特彆的小說。在繼承瞭英國文學傳統(狄更斯,康拉德最為明顯)的同時,創造性的書寫瞭印度二十世紀的曆史(個人記憶與集體曆史的並置)。可惜的是,作者沒有擺脫essentialism的邏輯,在英美主流文壇上屢獲好評,“政治正確”的因素不可否認。難怪讀完總感覺有那麼一點兒彆扭。BTW,說起魔幻現實主義的作品,迄今為止我還是認為《百年孤獨》為最佳。

我隻能說Rushdie天馬行空,將印度的曆史和主人公的命運捆綁在一起,主人公的成長曆程即是印度的發展過程,再加以印度神話敘述,不愧是THE BOOK OF BOOKS.
