Listen - Salman Rushdie on France Culture
LS - Option Anglais : a short (19') yet fascinating interview of the author of Midnight's Children, promoting his latest novel Two Years Eight Months and Twenty-Eight Nights (2015).
He discusses Magic Realism, religion and the influence of sacred texts on his writing, as well as fiction and narrative techniques - a nice appendix to our study of Beloved, and a major literary reference for the written commentary task!
