jfahey 's review for:

4.0

(Read via audiobook) this is my first Rushdie book and won’t be my last. I’m sad to say this book and his tragedy or how I discovered his works but I look forward to reading what else he has created while looking at him as a writer and not a victim.

There was much to enjoy in this book and I appreciate the details and humor. I didn’t give this 5 stars as I frankly could feel his arrogance seeping into the book with his name dropping of famous friends and many accolades; sure it’s true, but it became irritating to read about. That doesn’t take away from all this book has to offer so I would suggest to any considering it to take a look in it.
