Novel (Ebook pdf)

Description

Amazon.com Quichotte is Salman Rushdie at his best. An exquisite satire

on the world we live in, Rushdieâ€s latest novel pays Cervantes a

great, clever compliment with this deliciously funny Don Quixote for

modern times. Quichotte is a story within a story, a fictional novelist

unraveling his own journey of love and family through writing the story

of a man (whom the novelist names Quichotte) not wholly unlike himself.

Quichotte is a simple man who has watched too much television and now

believes we are living in a world of “Anything-Can-Happen,― when even

an aged pharmaceutical salesman can win the love of a beautiful TV star

whom he has never met. And so Quichotteâ€s quest begins. Quichotte

creates a son for himself, Sancho, sprung wholly formed to sit beside

him in his reliable Chevy Cruze on this cross-country adventure and with

whom he might share his vision of the world. Unfortunately, this

familial bond does not turn out the way Quichotte imagined. The

fictional novelist finds himself in the same situation, discovering that

the truths heâ€s told himself about his relationships and family have

been wrong all along. A road trip across America in an age that would be

utterly surreal if we werenâ€t actually living it, Quichotte is an

antidote to fear, a novel bursting with intelligence and wit—and

exactly what so many of us need right now. —Seira Wilson, Amazon Book

Review Read more “Rushdie weaves together all of his subjects, sharply

observed, with extraordinary elegance and wit. . . . Cervantesâ€s hero,

who is eternally modern perhaps because he is essentially anticontemporary,

couldnâ€t be a more inspired transplant into the mad

reality of the present day, which Rushdie sends up in terms both

universal and highly specific, tragic and hilarious, strange but

hauntingly familiar. . . . At least hereâ€s something worth reading as

civilization crumbles around us, before we succumb to our fates. Right?―

—Entertainment Weekly “Quichotte is a novel that attempts to

reflect back to us the total, crumbling insanity of living in a world

unmoored from reality — that shows what happens when lies become as

good as facts. . . . And if Quichotte drives you nuts, thatâ€s fine.

Itâ€s meant to. Itâ€s layered in such a way that you will lose

yourself in the shifting reality of it.―—NPR “Quichotte,

Rushdieâ€s Trump-era reworking of Cervantesâ€s Don Quixote, is a

frantically inventive take on ‘the Age of Anything-Can-Happenâ€

weâ€ve endured these last few years. Itâ€s a concoction of narratives

within narratives that blends the latest news headlines with apocalyptic


flights of fancy. . . . Rushdie doesnâ€t offer much hope for our

dispiriting times. But in a frayed and feverish way, he captures their

flavor exactly.―—The Boston Globe “Salman Rushdieâ€s Quichotte is

a behemoth of a novel, and with reason. A postmodern dystopian tale, it

tackles everything from global warming to the rise of white supremacism

to the opioid crisis—which is to say, most of the ills of contemporary

society. . . . Thereâ€s much that feels absorbing and true in

Rushdieâ€s latest work. . . . The way Rushdie handles racial animus,

too, is as incisive and complex as in his earlier fiction.―—The

Christian Science Monitor“A fantastical dream within a dream . . . a

brilliant, funny, world-encompassing wonder . . . As [Rushdie] weaves

the journeys of the two men nearer and nearer, sweeping up a full

accounting of all the tragicomic horrors of modern American life in the

process, these energies begin to collapse beautifully inward, like a

dying star. His readers realize that they would happily follow Rushdie

to the end of the world.―—Time “[A] modern Don Quixote . . .

Rushdie has created something that feels wholly original even if

youâ€ve never heard of the hopelessly romantic Spanish knight-errant

who sees danger in windmills. . . . Lucky for us, there are true

storytellers and Rushdie is near the top of that list. If you havenâ€t

read him before, this is a good book to start with—itâ€s fabulist and

funny while revealing an awful lot about the world we live in today.―

—Associated Press “Rushdieâ€s Booker-longlisted fourteenth novel is

certainly the work of a frisky imagination. . . . You canâ€t help being

charmed by Rushdieâ€s largesse.―—The Guardian“Hilarious by all

accounts.―—Literary Hub“[Quichotte] is Don Quixote for our time,

a smart satire of every aspect of the contemporary culture. Witty,

profound, tender, this love story shows a fiction master at his

brilliant best.―—The Millions “Rushdieâ€s novel is many thingsÂ

beyond just a Don Quixote retelling. Itâ€s a satire on our

contemporary fake-news, post-truth, Trumpian cultural moment, where the

concept of reality itself is coming apart. Itâ€s a sci-fi
