| Description: | Select Guide Rating On Valentine's Day, 1989, Salman Rushdie received a telephone call from a BBC journalist that would change his life forever: Ayatollah Khomeini, a leading Muslim scholar, had issued him with a death sentence. This book offers an account of how he was forced to live in hiding for over a decade. From the author of The Satanic Verses and Midnight''s Children comes an unflinchingly honest and fiercely funny account of a life turned upside-down. |
