A community portal about Salman Rushdie with blogs, videos, and photos. According to Wikipedia.org: Salman Rushdie is a British - Indian essayist and author of fiction, most of which is set on the Indian subcontinent. He is best known for the violent criticism that his book The Satanic Verses provoked in the Muslim community. After death threats and a fatwa by Ruhollah Khomeini, calling for his assassination, he spent years underground, appearing in public only sporadically. Between 2004 and 2006 he served as president of the PEN American Center.
