Salman Rushdie is known
for not holding back his words, treading through parts which have been
untraversed. He brings his scathing honesty to light in his upcoming memoir, Knife:
Meditations After an Attempted Murder, recounting the life-threatening
knife attack he endured in 2022. Penguin Books unveiled the cover, hinting at
how this was a necessary book for Rushdie to write, in order to take charge of
the incident and respond to violence with art. The book is a personal account
of what happened, 30 years after a fatwa was issued against him. Expected to
release in April 2024, the book is open for pre-orders.
