Knife: Meditations After an Attempted Murder
by Salman Rushdie
An elegant and inspirational account of Mr R's horrific experience at a literary event in 2022. References from Flaubert to Call of Duty. If you do have any opinion on Rushdie at all, you really should read this book, or any Rushdie book. Or at least more than two pages of one. Which is more than his assailant did.
Can books prevent violence, particularly violence from young men (SUCH a cliche)? Probably not, but this one might do some good. It needs to be read by all impressionable young men, which is all of them.
