The Big Read inspired me to try tackling some of the books I've bought that I haven't read. Rushdie's Satanic Verses is one of those.
Has anyone got through this book? I almost gave up through the first 16 pages, as it was like trying to clap to a syncopated song. However, at page 20 I started to adjust to the rhythm, or else it smoothed itself out, not sure which. It actually became very interesting, but I've hit a bit of a wall, the story became so bizarre, that I had to put it down, and I haven't picked it up again.
Anyone who's read it, is it worth sticking it out to get through it? I was fine, and enjoying it, to the point of one main character growing horns and other such mutations.
