Description

From internationally renowned author and Booker Prize winner Salman Rushdie, thirty years after a fatwa was issued against him, comes a poignant, personal account of a brutal attempt on his life. On the morning of August 12, 2022, Salman Rushdie was preparing for a lecture on stage at the Chautauqua Institution when a man in black robes and a black mask rushed toward him brandishing a knife. The vicious act of violence that followed shook the literary world. Now, for the first time, in this unforgettable account, Rushdie recounts the traumatic events of that day and its aftermath, as well as his journey to recovery. In The Knife, Rushdie is at the peak of his powers, writing with unflinching honesty. It is a deeply moving reminder of literature?s ability to understand the unimaginable, an intimate and faith-affirming saga of life, loss, love, art, and finding the power to rise again.
