Description
The subjects of Salman Rushdies collection of nonfiction range from The Wizard of Oz, U2, India and Indian writing, the death of Princess Diana, and football, to twentiethcentury writers including Angela Carter, Arthur Miller, Edward Said, J. M. Coetzee and Arundhati Roy. In a central section, Messages from the Plague Years, Rushdie focuses on the fight against the Iranian fatwa, presenting texts both personal and political, which show for the first time how it was to live through those days. Rushdies columns for the New York Times confront current issues Kashmir, Northern Ireland, Kosovo, Islam and the West as well as lighter topics such as reality TV, sport and sleaze. The book ends with the lectures that give it its title Rushdies exploration of the theme of frontiers: crossing them, breaking taboos, and in the light of September 11 the world of permeable frontiers in which we all live.
