Midnight's Children by Salman Rushdie

4.0

---

Beginning a book by Rushdie requires an adjustment period. His paragraphs are streams of description that are so loud, intricate, and vibrant you forget the piece of the plot you were meant to notice. The focus of midnight's children is so compelling that once you've adjusted to the world of smells and holes you don't really care to leave.
