"[T]he book's promising beginning is soon drowned out by more typically Rushdian overkill: the cacophony of voices, plots, opinions, allegory, puns, magic realism, multicultural mythology, historical clues, and pop-culture references he has never attempted to edit. He cannot trust the story he is telling to hold its own. The point, for him, is not the tale he tells but the sound of his own raucous and frequently hysterical voice raised in its telling."

Brooke Allen, Atlantic Monthly, September 2001

"[A] novel that exhausts negative superlatives, that is likely to make even its most charitable readers furious....[M]ost of it is relentlessly set in the New York of last year, and records, as if offering the pages of a calendar, the city's large and small events....Flourishing its glamorous congestion, FURY is immediately obsolete; its trivia tattoo has already faded....In general, Rushdie's observations pound a wilderness between incredibility and banality."

James Wood, New Republic, 09/24/2001
