Shame

En savoir plus sur le livre

In this brilliant novel, Salman Rushdie masterfully combines history, art, language, politics, and religion. Set in a country "not quite Pakistan," the story centers around the families of two men -- one a celebrated warrior, the other, a debauched playboy engaged in a protracted duel that is played out in the political landscape of their country. <b>Shame</b> is a tour de force and a fitting predecessor to the author's legendary novel, <b>The Satanic Verses</b>. <i>From the Trade Paperback edition.</i>
