Born at the stroke of midnight on the day of India's independence, Saleem Sinai finds his life inextricably linked with the fate of the nation. With telepathic powers and a nose that can sniff out far more than smells, Saleem takes us on an extraordinary journey through post-colonial India — its triumphs, its traumas, and its transformations.
Rushdie’s Booker Prize-winning masterpiece blends history with fantasy, personal narrative with national identity, in a voice that's as lyrical as it is provocative.
