This Audible production expertly brings to life Salman Rushdie’s postcolonial masterpiece Midnight’s Children, available for the first time unabridged in audio. Written in the magical-realist style that Rushdie is renowned for, Midnight’s Children follows Saleem Sinai - a child gifted with extraordinary powers after being born at the exact moment India becomes independent. The captivating events that unfold act as an allegory for India’s transition from colonialism to independence as Saleem finds himself 'handcuffed to history', with his fate entwined with that of his newly independent state.

Just before dawn one winter’s morning, a hijacked aeroplane blows apart high above the English Channel and two figures tumble, clutched in an embrace, towards the sea: Gibreel Farishta, India’s legendary movie star, and Saladin Chamcha, the man of a thousand voices. Washed up, alive, on an English beach, their survival is a miracle. But there is a price to pay. Gibreel and Saladin have been chosen as opponents in the eternal wrestling match between Good and Evil. But chosen by whom? And which is which? And what will be the outcome of their final confrontation?

Inspired by the Cervantes classic, Sam DuChamp, mediocre writer of spy thrillers, creates Quichotte, a courtly, addled salesman obsessed with television, who falls in impossible love with a TV star. Together with his (imaginary) son Sancho, Quichotte sets off on a picaresque quest across America to prove worthy of her hand, gallantly braving the tragicomic perils of an age where 'Anything-Can-Happen'. Meanwhile his creator, in a midlife crisis, has equally urgent challenges of his own.

Rushdies Tausendundeine Nacht. "Mein Roman ist inspiriert von den prächtigen Wundergeschichten Indiens und des Orients und den Märchen aus Tausendundeiner Nacht. Ich stellte mir vor, dass es außer unserer Welt noch eine andere geben könnte, bevölkert mit Wesen, die sich heftig in die menschlichen Angelegenheiten einmischen. Alles beginnt damit, dass eines dieser Wesen, Dunia, die Prinzessin des Lichts, sich in den Philosophen Al Ruschd verliebt... Die Handlung erstreckt sich über zwei Jahre, acht Monate und achtundzwanzig Nächte - über tausendundeine Nacht. Ihr Salman Rushdie."

From one of the greatest writers of our time: a spellbinding, entertaining, wildly imaginative novel which blends history and myth with tremendous philosophical depth. A masterful, mesmerising modern tale about worlds dangerously colliding and the monsters that are unleashed when reason recedes and a beautiful testament to the power of love and humanity in chaotic times.

Maximilian Ophuls, illustre intellettuale, eroe della Seconda guerra mondiale ed ex ambasciatore americano in India, muore sotto lo sguardo della propria figlia per mano del suo autista Noman Sher Noman, detto anche "Shalimar il clown".

"Quichotte" er en stort anlagt, episk fortælling om længslen efter kærlighed og familieliv. Det er en satirisk pastiche over Miguel de Cervantes klassiker, "Don Quixote", og samtidig et spiddende, foruroligende og humoristisk portræt af samtidens USA. Ismail Smile (aka Quichotte) er omrejsende sælger i sin fætters medicinalfirma og besat af TV - og så er han den mislykkede spionforfatter Sam DuChamps kreation. I mr. Smiles ensomme liv er hans bil hans hjem og TV’et hans eneste selskab: Indtil han forelsker sig i TV-stjernen miss Salma R.

Malik Solanka, storico delle idee in pensione e irascibile fabbricante di bambole, un giorno cambia radicalmente vita, abbandona la famiglia e fugge a New York. Sente una furia agitarsi dentro di sé e teme di diventare un pericolo per quelli che ama. Sbarca a Manhattan nel momento in cui l'America è al vertice della sua onnivora potenza. Solanka cerca pace, ma tutto quel che lo circonda sembra ugualmente dominato da una furia: battibecchi e litigi, meschinità e risentimenti percorrono la metropoli da un capo all'altro.
