His first novel to be set largely in the United States, The Ground Beneath Her Feet is Salman Rushdie's celebration of Americana, a brilliant examination of what the world means to America, and what America means to the world. It's his most gripping, boldest and imaginative novel to date - an account of the intimate and flawed encounter between the East and West.

"An unparalleled demonstration of a great writer at the peak of his powers."

Kirkus, 01/15/1999

"Despite Rushdie's myriad talents as a writer, the resulting novel is a decidedly disappointing performance: a handful of dazzling set pieces, bundled together with long-winded digressions, tiresome soliloquizing about love and death and art, and cliched descriptions of the rock 'n' roll business worthy of Jackie Collins....Sadly for the reader, Rushdie seems to have misplaced his magician's ability to fuse the mythic and the mundane, the surreal and the authentic, into a seamless whole."

Michiko Kakutani, New York Times, 04/13/1999
