Called ‘Ground beneath her feet’ by Salman Rushdi.
I was wondering if anyone of u read it?
I bought it a while back and will start reading it as soon as I have some time. Just wanted to know your opinions; did you like it?Is it worth the long read? etc:) (only by those who read it ofcourse)
Thanx.
I am an avid reader, but I must admit, I couldn't even get through the first chapter of this book.
huh… 
Why you got a book by that author… 
MehnazQ,
Yes that's exactly what I thought after reading the first few pages...I put it away and now not sure if I should start again.
Thanx for the input :)
^-- No thanks.. 
exactly my thoughts:disgust:
^
its as free world … she can buy whatever she wants :k:
so i am not free to think whatever i want?
sure you have every right to think whatever you want to think … waise kia faida … ur already a gadha 
:k:
It takes a bigger one to know one
iss loser ki to koi book hi na khareeday
Guys guys
Whats'the big deal?
Me reading a book by Salman Rushdi doesnt mean I like the guy or I agree with what he has to say or whatever!
It's just that I am curious to find out why his novels are so popular.
I like to find out stuff myself and don't blindly follow others.
SO why do ppl read?... to educate themselves ...right?!
And no I haven't read The satanic verses.... I might though...maybe....?!
Again for the same reasons I mentioned above.
Peace
:)
i remember trying to read one of his veryy famous novels which i believe was banned in most countries. i think it was ‘the stannic verses’
well..couldn’t even get through the first couple of pages..
b/w sidney sheldon… :k: :k: in particular, i remember that i enjoyed reading his novel ‘tell me ur dreams’

There are a lot of books that should be banned. ;)

Because I've read a few passages from Satanic Verses and I've watched some of his interviews.... that's why in my opinion, he's a slime ball and I wouldn't want to give him 1 cent.
