“Salman Rushdie’s sumptuous mixture of history and fable in The Enchantress of Florence is magnificent,” says Ursula K. LeGuin. In telling the story of a woman attempting to command her own destiny in a man’s world, Rushdie plumbs themes of East and West, love and betrayal, religion and unbelief, and sex. Rushdie’s previous award-winning novels include Midnight’s Children, Satanic Verses, and Shalimar the Clown.
