Shame by Salman Rushdie, Paperback | Indigo Chapters

A dark comedy of public life and historical imperatives, the theme of this novel by Salman Rushdie is shame and shamelessness. It can be read as a baroque fable, as a polemic, as history. Blending myth and satire, Shame sweeps from revelation to obscurity, affairs of honour to the open violence of political life. Shame was short-listed for the Booker Prize and won France's Prix du Meilleur Livre Etranger. | Shame by Salman Rushdie, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
