Synopsis "Cuchillo (in Spanish)"

Las nuevas memorias de Salman Rushdie, ganador del Premio Booker. El relato estremecedor sobre
el atentado contra su vida más de treinta años después de la fatwa dictada contra él.
Contenido
Por primera vez, y con una franqueza conmovedora, Rushdie habla sobre los traumá&cos
acontecimientos vividos el 12 de agosto de 2022, respondiendo con la fuerza del arte a la violencia
ejercida contra él, y recordándonos el poder que &enen las palabras para otorgar sen&do a lo
impensable. Cuchillo es una meditación poderosa, profundamente personal y, en úl&ma instancia,
reafirmante sobre la vida, la pérdida, el amor, el arte y sobre cómo reunir la fuerza necesaria para
ponerse de nuevo en pie.
«Seno la necesidad de escribir este libro: una forma de procesar lo sucedido y de responder a la
violencia con arte». Salman Rushdie
