Kristine’s Reviews > Quichotte > Status Update

This is my first try with Salman Rushdie; his Satanic Verses infamy made him intimidating. By p. 2 I was enjoying his cheeky wit and undeniable sophistication. As the plot got layered and characters multiplied, I wasn't quite hooked - until suddenly about 50 pps in, I was. The passage is too long to copy and too masterful for me to describe, except to say: This takeoff on the Quijote does justice to its inspiration.
