jaspur's review against another edition
I’ve enjoyed the few of Rushdie’s books I’ve read previously. I didn’t read reviews of this book before starting, and didn’t realize I was signing up for a poorly informed 400 page diatribe about the dangers of “gender identity theory”. This book is self righteous, transphobic, and boring.
