Salman Rushdie

"East, West" is a collection of short stories by Salman Rushdie that explores themes of identity, culture, and the overlap between East and West.

The book is divided into three parts: "East", "West" and "Middle", each with its own specific stories.

The stories often feature different characters struggling with cultural differences, personal crises, and complex relationships between tradition and modernity. Rushdie uses rich language and complex narratives to depict the emotional states and political tensions arising from colonialism, emigration and globalization.

The book deals with questions of belonging and identity, and how these concepts are changing in the light of global changes. Rushdie's storytelling combines elements of magical realism and personal introspection, which makes "East, West" an interesting and layered work.
