Salman Rushdie writes literary fiction that combines history, politics, migration and myth through exuberant language and shifting forms of reality. Midnight's Children follows Saleem Sinai, born at the moment of Indian independence and linked telepathically to other children born around the same time, tying one family history to the creation of modern India. The Satanic Verses moves between migration, dream, religious imagery and identity in Britain, while The Moor's Last Sigh follows a family across India and Spain. Rushdie's novels are dense, comic and allusive, with magical events treated alongside political history rather than separated from it. His work fits postcolonial fiction, magical realism and migration literature for readers comfortable with layered narration and cultural references. Read more Less
