In one of my South Mountain College classes, we are reading the excellent novel "The Satanic Verses" By Salman Rushdie.(Wiki)
A book that speaks on so many levels, the novel is more popularly known as the one that sparked controversy in the muslim community, leading to Ayatollah Khomeini's fatwa declaration.
One of Rushdie's friends, writer Hanif Kureishi, speaks out on the impact of the Verses on British culture.
