A review by patiolinguist
The Satanic Verses by Salman Rushdie

1.0

Ok, I gave up on this book at page 18.. and I rarely put down a book so early, but I couldn't really imagine that it would get better - I don't know whether it was the magical realism, the unnecessarily lengthy descriptions, or my lacking knowledge of the cultural context, but I found it unreadable. Definitely not for me, at least not now.
