''Rushdie''s most engaging book since Midnight''s Children'' Observer


Shalimar the Clown was once a figure full of love and laughter. His skill as a tightrope walker was legendary in his native home of Kashmir. But fate has played him cruelly, torn him away from his beloved home and brought him to Los Angeles, where he works as a chauffeur. One morning he gets up, goes to work, and kills his employer, America''s former counter-terrorist chief Maximilian Ophuls, in view of the victim''s illegitimate daughter, India.

The killing has its roots halfway across the globe, back in Kashmir, a ruined paradise not so much lost as shattered. And gradually it emerges that beyond this unholy trinity of Max, India and Shalimar, lurks a fourth, shadowy figure, one who binds them all together.

''This is Rushdie at his most flamboyant best'' Financial Times
