The novel that set the stage for his modern classic, <i>The Satanic Verses</i>,<i>Shame</i> is Salman Rushdie’s phantasmagoric epic of an unnamed country that is “not quite Pakistan.” In this dazzling tale of an ongoing duel between the families of two men–one a celebrated wager of war, the other a debauched lover of pleasure–Rushdie brilliantly portrays a world caught between honor and humiliation–“shamelessness, shame: the roots of violence.”<i>Shame</i> is an astonishing story that grows more timely by the day.
