I love Rushdie and enjoyed it like I have everything I've read from him. BUT I did find this one a little hard to get into. I really liked it, but at the same time it didn't suck me in. Definitely gave me some Ursula K. Le Guin vibes. Reflects on spirituality, rationality, pessimism, optimism, and full of his usual whimsy and magical realism.
