For me, it seems like a discount version of "Terra Nostra" by Carlos Fuentes, and i have a hard time, bringing up the attention while constantly losing focus and having only a vague idea, what the book is all about because of it.
Such a frustrating reading experience, but i can't stop, because i have this dogma to finish every book i started. At the same time, it makes me feel dumb, because i have almost no idea what's going on.
Like, it's one of those cultural products that you want to like but it is just so. Damn. Boring. Wah!
I just had to vent.

Agree. 💯 Surprised how few people recognize this. This book would not have 1% of its sales if not for the fatwa and all the controversies. Frankly, Midnight’s Children is the only book by Rushdie that actually was worth the time.
