When a jumbo jet blows apart above the English Channel, Gabreel and Saladin are two who survive and are washed up on an English beach. It soon becomes clear that curious changes have come over them and that they have been chosen as protagonists in the eternal struggle between God and the Devil.
One of the most controversial and acclaimed stories ever written, The Satanic Verses is Salman Rushdie’s best-known and most galvanizing work.
Set in a modern world filled with both mayhem and miracles, the story begins with a bang: the terrorist bombing of a London-bound jet in mid-flight. Two Indian actors of opposing sensibilities fall to earth, transformed into living symbols of what is angelic and evil.
This is just the initial act in a magnificent odyssey that seamlessly merges the actual with the imagined. A story whose importance is eclipsed only by its quality, The Satanic Verses is a key work of our times.
'A novel of metamorphosis, hauntings, memories, hallucinations, revelations, advertising jingles and jokes. Rushdie has the power of description, and we succumb.'
The Times
'Rushdie is a storyteller of prodigious powers, able to conjure up whole geographies, causalities, climates, creatures, customs, out of thin air.'
The New York Times Book Review
