bethgaskell 's review for:
The Satanic Verses
by Salman Rushdie
This was a bit of a slog, but ultimately it was worth it. I always struggle with magical realism, and this was not exception, but once I got into the story (took me until a little a quarter of the way through) I really did get invested. I can't really understand why this book is so controversial-which probably shows my ignorance of Islam, but I didn't find it fascinating to begin to fully comprehend the shared heritage of the three main world religions. Worth perceiving with!
