Read more Rushdie, 75, was The author – who spent years in hiding and long endured death threats over his book The Satanic Verses – was in hospital for six weeks, and he lost vision in one eye as well as the use of one hand. Authorities arrested 24-year-old Hadi Matar in connection with the assassination attempt that also left the talk’s moderator injured, and they charged the suspect with attempted second-degree murder and attempted second-degree assault. He has Matar is thought to have been trying to carry out the fatwa – or ruling – that the late Iranian leader Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini put out on Rushdie’s life after many Muslims found The Satanic Verses to be blasphemous in its portrayal of the prophet Muhammad. In the New Yorker interview conducted by fellow author David Remnick, Rushdie said he solely blamed Matar for the stabbing. “I blame him,” Rushdie told Remnick when asked who was at fault for an attempt on the life of an Indian-born British author who had spent years under police protection following the fatwa’s issuance but was moving around more openly after moving to the US. Rushdie declined to place any blame on those in charge of security at the talk where he was stabbed. The site did not have walk-through or wand metal detectors to screen audience members for weapons. Security screening was instead reportedly limited to checking for tickets and preventing people from bringing in food or drinks. “I’ve tried very hard over these years to avoid recriminat...

His reappearance as a public figure also included a recent real-life visit to the New York City office of his agent, Andrew Wylie; promotion for his new book, "Victory City," completed before the stabbing; and a vow to eschew feelings of bitterness six months after the attack in western New York. In 1989, Rushdie defied advice to lie low after Iran's late supreme leader, Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini, put a virtual contract on his life in response to his novel "The Satanic Verses," which many Muslims found blasphemous or at least outrageously irreverent. Rushdie has also expressed little desire to embrace a recluse's life after the midsummer violence at a public, outdoor discussion in Chautauqua, New York. Yet he acknowledged the attack has caused him disruption and agony. Wylie has said Rushdie will not go on a book tour to promote the publication of "Victory City." The violence unfolded quickly on Aug. 12 at the Chautauqua Institution, where Rushdie was seated onstage, awaiting the start of a discussion that was part of the Chautauqua Lecture Series. A person dressed in black rushed the stage, and Rushdie was stabbed multiple times, authorities said. He said Rushdie would probably lose the use of one eye, and today Rushdie wears glasses with a darkly tinted right lens in place of an eye patch. Although Rushdie's physiological recovery appears to be nearly completed, he indicated to The New Yorker that his mind still needs time. “I’ve found it very, very difficult to write,...

Rushdie, who was stabbed more than 10 times, describes his recovery from the Aug. 12, 2022 attack with the kind of measured care that has kept him in the land of the living. “Slowly does it,” he says. A tinted lens hides his right eye, which no longer sees. “The knife went quite deep in. The knife went as far as the optic nerve.” He also lost the use, for a time, of his left hand, but that’s coming back. His longtime therapist has helped with “nightmares, and that sort of thing,” he says. As the young New Jersey man Victory City. And he had given only Read More: “I’m happy to be on the list. It means somebody’s noticing what I do,” he says. “One of the things that I liked about the way in which Victory City has been received—it’s been wonderfully well received, but I didn’t get the sense that the reviews were written out of sympathy. There were serious reviews, which were about the work. And I thought in a way it’s good because that book, coming out when it did, slightly changed the subject, that it’s not only somebody who is the target of an attack, but also there’s a creative artist here. Being included in this eminent list is another way of saying I’m not just somebody who got attacked.” And yet on the day that Rushdie, 75, spoke with me from his New York City home, it was into the camera of the laptop on which he’s pecking out what will be something of a sequel to Joseph Anton. The acclaimed 2012 memoir was titled for the alias Rushdie used during the 10 years he spent...
