Gonzalez, Madelena author. Fiction after the Fatwa : Salman Rushdie and the Charm of Catastrophe / Madelena Gonzalez. Salman Rushdie and the Charm of Catastrophe Leiden; Boston : BRILL, 2004. 1 online resource (270 pages) text txt rdacontent computer c rdamedia online resource cr rdacarrier Costerus New Series ; 153 Description based on print version record. Fiction after the Fatwa: Salman Rushdie and the Charm of Catastrophe proposes for the first time an examination of what Rushdie has achieved as a writer since the fourteenth of February 1989, the date of the fatwa. This study argues that his constant questioning of fictional form and the language used to articulate it have opened up new opportunities and further possibilities for writing in the late twentieth and early twenty-first centuries. Through close readings and intensive textual analysis, arranged chronologically, Fiction after the Fatwa provides a thought-provoking reflection on the writer's achievements over the last thirteen years. Aimed principally at academics and students, but also of interest to the general reader, it engages with the specific nature of the post-fatwa fiction as it moves from the fairy-tale world of Haroun and the Sea of Stories to the heartbreaking post-realism of Fury . Includes bibliographical references and index. 1. Fiction after the Fatwa -- 2. Haroun and the Sea of Stories: "The Uses of Enchantment" -- 3. East, West: The Dislocation of Culture -- 4.
