The Moor's Last SighRushdie, Salman

Your Satisfaction is Guaranteed:
"An extraordinary novel...one of the most important to come out of the English speaking world in this generation."
V. S. Pritchett
Review:"We have an epic in our laps. The obvious comparisons are to Gunter Grass in 'The Tin Drum' and to Gabriel Garcia Marquez in 'One Hundred Years of Solitude'. I am happy to oblige the obvious....I wish Mr. Rushdie's children, all of them orphans of history, would take over the world at dawn. This novel--exuberant, excessive, despairing--is special."
Robert Towers, New York Review of Books
