Joseph Anton jellemzők

For over a decade, Salman Rushdie lived with a death sentence. He dwelt in a world of secrecy and disguise, a world of security guards and armoured cars, of aliases and code names.
In Joseph Anton, Rushdie tells the tale behind the infamous fatwa. It is a remarkable story of one of the crucial battles, in our time, for freedom of speech, but also an unflinchingly honest and fiercely funny account of a life turned upside-down.
