2008: Shadow of the Fatwa. #SalmanRushdie’s critics lost the battle, but they won the war against free speech, says Kenan Malik: journals.sagepub.com/doi/abs/10.1...

My review of #SalmanRushdie's 'Haroun and the Sea of Stories', simultaneously a children's story, comic fantasy, savage satire, literary fable, and modern fairytale. #20BooksOfSummer #Booksky

@France24_en: 🇮🇳📙 As #SalmanRushdie’s stabbing trial in the US grabs global headlines, Indian bookshops are now selling “The #SatanicVerses” 4 decades after #India banned the #book.

🚫 The ban was not lifted over freedom of speech concerns, but due to bureaucratic ineptitude https://t.co/RtAgKVI

#SalmanRushdie’s The Satanic Verses returns to India after a 36-year ban.

I also recently read #SalmanRushdie's Knife. He is profound, honest, and insightful throughout the book. And shows how love and compassion helped him not only survive and recover as well as he has, but even counter the hate of his attempted murder.

.@SalmanRushdie’s turn of phrase, “fearless disrepect,” resonates with me. If you want power, legitimate or not, prepare to be mocked.

My 10 year old niece on @salmanrushdie's Joseph Anton: "If anyone can take criticism its God. And if you don't like a story, don't read it."
