These books are taking more and more time to finish. Unable to dedicate much time to reading.
Anyways, here is another novel from Rushdie which I don't really appreciate much. There is no apparent reason for that but I think his style is so repetitive that I just felt that it was not worth the time.
The whole book is a bad fiction with the real events thrown in and some wild imagination. I knew so many events from the book which were just added to give a taste of reality from around the world. The characters were designed so heroic that it was difficult to connect with them. So many changes in place, character and story ended up as a garbled text. I actually thought to get rid of it but the old habits don't die. It is bad to have such habits to see till the end. A bad experience after reading Irving Stone.
The story revolves around the life of two lovers who were madly in love but were separated by greed. That is all I want to write here.
If you're a fan of this magical realism, than this book is for you, rest of us can be spared.
Thanks!
