I figured I needed some stimulation, so I started reading "The Satanic Verses" by Salman Rushdie again (didn't get through it the first time).

Okay, I'm halfway through the book, and all I have to say is that I want some of whatever Rushdie was smoking when he wrote this. And he has a fatwa on his ass for this literary muddle? Seriously? Because honestly, there is so much hopping about and back and forth between the characters and some random dream world, that I get lost at times and my eyes just glaze over and I lose sight of what he was talking about. I thought this was supposed to be some damning work on Islam or something, because the Ayatollah at the time was bitching about it.

It's an interesting book, just......weirdly written.
