ABSTRACT
Rushdie has made his aesthetic predilections very clearwhen he requests the readers not to expect from writers like him, that hisnovels create ‘typical ‘or ‘representative’ fictions which are invariably deadbooks. His books attempt radical reformulation of language, form and ideas,those that attempt to do what the ‘novel’ seems to insist upon: to see theworld a new.
