A review by samtast1cal
Shalimar the Clown by Salman Rushdie

2.0

Ha, perhaps I'm a pathetic reader, because I am basing this mediocre rating on the fact that I detest basically every single character Rushdie introduced in this novel. But my distaste made me hesitate to pick it up again, made me dread turning the pages. I did like the end. Perhaps because that meant it was over. "It was ok" because the characters are obviously robust enough for me to hate them...
