The publication of Victory City, Salman Rushdie’s fifteenth novel, is a beautiful reminder of the author’s scintillating imagination. An exuberant story brimming with humour, this is Rushdie’s finest novel in years. Written before the attack on the author last year, this novel turns out not only to be a rollicking read but also an act of defiance. Today, admirers of his work Chitra Ramaswamy, Simon Schama, and Nicola Sturgeon discuss the novels that have changed and shaped their lives. Chaired by Nick Barley.
