Description
An autobiographical book by Salman Rushdie, Booker Prize winner and well-known author of works such as «The Satanic Verses», «The Last Sigh of the Moor», «The City of Victory», and «Shame», tells how on St. Valentine’s Day in 1989 Ayatollah Khomeini sentenced him to death for the novel «The Satanic Verses». Rushdie was forced to go into hiding, constantly under police protection, and created the pseudonym Joseph Anton, inspired by the names of his favorite writers—Conrad and Chekhov.
