"Midnight's Children" blew me away so I'm looking forward to "Satanic Verses." I have a reading list a mile long, which is why I haven't gotten to it just yet...

I bought it when I was in high school just because of the controversy and it just wasn't what I was into reading at the time. Will definitely give it another shot seeing as we've reached the anniversary. I must admit I never got through it myself.

You have to deal with his whole magic realism universe, which is puzzling at first and takes some time to figure out... but it's totally rewarding.
