精彩书评

"Allegorical novel by Salman Rushdie, published in 1981. It is a historical chronicle of modern India centering on the inextricably linked fates of two children born within the first hour of independence from Great Britain. Exactly at midnight on Aug. 15, 1947, two boys are born in a Bombay hospital, where they are switched by a nurse. Saleem Sinai, who will be raised by a well-to-do Muslim couple, is actually the illegitimate son of a low-caste Hindu woman and a departing British colonist. Shiva, the son of the Muslim couple, is given to a poor Hindu street performer whose unfaithful wife has died. Saleem represents modern India. When he is 30, he writes his memoir, Midnight's Children. Shiva is destined to be Saleem's enemy as well as India's most honored war hero. This multilayered novel places Saleem in every significant event that occurred on the Indian subcontinent in the 30 years after independence. Midnight's Children was awarded the Booker Prize for fiction in 1981."

这本书只用了具有神开辟天地的恢弘气势的前两节就让我激动不已，看完第一部的时候我已经将拉什迪拥戴到那些让我崇敬的伟大作家行列之中，而读罢厚达600页（繁体中文）的全书后，确认这位在孟买度过童年、在英国成长起来的作家心中装着整个印度，外加世界文学的最丰厚遗产，且不止于此。
