This is an act of penance. You really need to think if you want to commit. I find Salman Rushdie's style so totally pretentious. It's clear he's trying to convey that his mind is so superior to yours. He talks in riddles. I can feel him looking down his nose at his readers - servile numpties. He reaches for eloquence - it comes out as arrogance. Waffle and piffle - written to be compared with Solzhenitsyn. Not!
