In an English college, an undead academic can’t rest until he avenges his former tormentor. Following Meditations After an Attempted Murder, Salman Rushdie’s new fiction moves between the places he has grown up in, inhabited, explored, and left. In doing so, he asks fundamental questions we all one day face. How does one deal with, accommodate, or rail against entering the eleventh hour, the final stage of your life? How can you bid farewell to the If old age was thought of as an evening, ending in midnight oblivion, they were well into the eleventh hour.
