A review by rhyalized
The Golden House by Salman Rushdie

4.0

It’s a very cool experience to read a book set in modern day with references to modern political movements and history. Rushdie’s political commentary is heavy handed, but I don’t see why it shouldn’t be. The story that goes along with it is a ride—I’ll admit, similar in feel to Gatsby, but also so different. Definitely worth a read. I also feel specially connected to this book because there’s a character with the same name as me. Not only does that never happen for me, but she’s also badass, so thanks for that too, Rushdie 👌🏽
