Despite the danger, Salman Rushdie stepped onto the stage of the Chatokua Institute to give a lecture on writers’ safety. However, an unknown person attacked him with a knife, inflicting multiple wounds. In his autobiographical book «Knife», Rushdie tells about his path to recovery—a path made possible by love and support from his family, doctors, and readers. He also offers reflections on life, love, art, and the inner strength needed to overcome difficulties.
