Podcast appearances and mentions of joseph anton

Ever wondered how you can achieve the health benefits of fasting without actually abstaining from food? Join us as we explore this intriguing concept with Dr. Joseph Anton, CEO of L-Nutra. Dr. Anton introduces us to the innovative idea of physiological or cellular fasting, where specific nutritional choices can simulate the body's fasting state. We delve into the popularity and benefits of intermittent fasting, particularly the 16-hour fasting pattern, and examine how our bodies switch from glycogen depletion to fat burning and cellular rejuvenation through autophagy during extended fasting periods.In an insightful comparison, we pit fasting against the ketogenic diet, scrutinizing their molecular impacts on pathways like mTOR, AMPK, and RAS. Dr. Anton breaks down the complex stress response triggered by fasting, which not only downregulates growth pathways but also boosts growth hormone, leading to muscle rejuvenation and cellular autophagy. While the ketogenic diet has its merits, particularly for short-term benefits, it falls short of the deep cellular and longevity advantages that fasting offers. We highlight the importance of balanced, intermittent fasting approaches for achieving optimal health and longevity.We examine the transformative potential of the fasting mimicking diet through Prolon, a revolutionary product designed to maintain muscle while promoting fat loss. Dr. Anton shares the physical and mental perks, including enhanced energy, performance, mental clarity, and skin rejuvenation. We discuss how Prolon can seamlessly fit into long-term health plans, particularly for those with metabolic conditions, and even explore its potential for insurance coverage. Tune in for groundbreaking health insights and actionable advice that could change your life.Free sample chapter -Lies I Taught In Medical School :https://www.robertlufkinmd.com/lies/Our sponsors: Siphox Health, at-home health testing (15% off):https://pathlongevity.com/Prolon & the Fasting Mimicking Diet (20% off ):https://prolonlife.com/LufkinSuperpower, skip the waitlist HERE:https://superpower.com/lufkin *** CONNECT***Web: https://robertlufkinmd.com/X: https://x.com/robertlufkinmdYoutube: https://www.youtube.com/robertLufkinmdInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/robertlufkinmd/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/robertlufkinmd/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/robertlufkinmd Threads: ...

Piše Simon Popek. bere Igor Velše. Če bodo po najnovejšem delu Salmana Rushdieja kdaj posneli film, ga bodo verjetno naslovili 27 sekund. Toliko je namreč trajalo intimno srečanje med slovitim piscem in njegovim napadalcem, ki je 12. avgusta 2022 v mestecu Chautauqua v zvezni državi New York žrtev petnajstkrat zabodel in mu skoraj vzel življenje. Napadalec, ki ga Rushdie v knjigi Nož dosledno imenuje s kratico A, mu je vzel desno oko in poškodoval dobršen del telesa, ni mu pa mogel vzeti volje do življenja in pisanja. Literarnih dosežkov v tem primeru objektivno ne moremo kritizirati, pisec je bil v obdobju okrevanja. Pa vendar – Nož ne premore običajne avtorjeve elegance in emotivne prepričljivosti, lahko pa smo zadovoljni, da je – nepolni dve leti po incidentu – sploh nastal in prišel v javnost. Rushdie, hvala bogu (sic!), ni izgubil smisla za humor, čeprav pri zapriseženem ateistu ni vedno jasno, ali gre v posamičnih instancah za demonstracijo njegove nečimrnosti in narcisoidnosti ali za hudomušno opazko, npr. ko mu morajo, močno krvavečemu, med nudenjem prve pomoči na mestu zločina razrezati obleko. Bi še kdo drug v trenutkih, ko mu življenje visi na nitki, tožil nad uničeno obleko prestižne znamke!? Z memoarsko literaturo, kamor lahko uvrstimo Nož, ima Rushdie že nekaj izkušenj; desetletje pred napadom je objavil knjigo Joseph Anton (to je bil njegov psevdonim v letih skrivanja), v kateri je popisal svoja leta na begu pred morebitnimi napadalci po Homeinijevi fatvi. Obenem je bila to knjiga o ločevanju od žensk v njegovem življenju, med nastajanjem se je ločil od dveh življenjskih sopotnic. V tem smislu je Nož, malce paradoksalno, bolj optimistično delo, morda tudi zato, ker je po dobrih desetih letih skrivanja v New Yorku začel živeti razmeroma normalno življenje. V knjigi seveda popisuje grozljivi napad in težavno okrevanje, toda hkrati govori o ljubezni, življenju, ponujeni drugi priložnosti. V prvi polovica knjige (Angel smrti) ponudi detajlno kroniko napada, srečanje z bodočo ženo Elizo in mukotrpno okrevanje. Druga polovica (Angel življenja) govori o vrnitvi domov, novi normalnosti, morebitni pomiritvi in predvsem o srečanju z atentatorjem, ki pa se v resnici nikoli ne zgodi. Prav poglavje z naslovom A, imaginarno Rushdiejevo srečanje z napadalcem, ki je med nastajanjem knjige v zaporu na severu zvezne države čakal na sodni proces, je najbolj intriganten del Noža; Rushdie v njem snov novelizira, iz svojega napadalca ustvari literarni lik. Reference se iskrijo in množijo; napadalca intelektualno poniža, ga pomiluje, racionalno mu skuša razložiti njegove fanatične verske zablode. Toda kako verskemu blaznežu, za katerega obstaja samo ena knjiga in ena beseda (in Netflix!), razložiti smisel sveta, smisel umetnosti? Rushdie vztraja pri pomembnosti in neuničljivosti umetnosti, ki da mora izzivati pravovernost ter hkrati sprejemati argumentacijo, kritiko, celo zavrnitev, ne sme pa sprejemati nasilja. Nasilje je bilo za Rushdieja tako nedojemljivo in neuresničljivo, da je ob bliskovitem napadu v Chautauqui, kjer naj bi s kolegi pisci, ironično, debatiral o varnosti in zaščiti preganjanih pisateljev, preprosto stal, opazoval napadalca in ni ponujal skoraj nobenega odpora. »Ti si torej to. Tu si,« si misli ob približevanju napadalca. In trenutek zatem, »zakaj zdaj, po vseh teh letih?« Drži, od Homeinijeve fatve do napada na Rushdieja so minila več kot tri desetletja, ko se po številnih travmatičnih dogodkih temeljito ni spremenil le svet, temveč tudi odnos do islama in verskega fanatizma. Rushdiejev forte je bil od nekdaj mešanje zelo osebnega in zelo političnega, tega pa Nož, žal, ne ponuja v zadostni meri; vsebuje sijajna poglavja in tista, ki bi se jim lahko izognil. Kar pa ne more biti kritika, Nož je knjiga, ki jo je treba prebrati.

One of the world's greatest novelists, Salman Rushdie has won many prestigious international literary awards and was knighted for services to literature in 2007. He won the Booker Prize in 1981 for Midnight's Children, a novel that was also twice voted as the best of all-time Booker winners. In 1989 Iranian leader Ayatollah Khomeini declared that Rushdie's fourth novel, The Satanic Verses, was blasphemous and pronounced a death sentence against its author. For over a decade he lived in hiding with close security, a period of his life that he wrote about in the 2012 memoir Joseph Anton. His most recent book Knife details the horrific stabbing he survived in 2022.Talking to John Wilson, Salman Rushdie recalls his childhood in Bombay, and the folk tales and religious fables he grew up with. He chooses Indian independence and partition in 1947 as one of the defining moments of his creative life, a period that formed the historical backdrop to Midnight's Children. He discusses how, having first moved to England as a schoolboy and then to New York after the fatwa, the subject of migration has recurred throughout much of his work, including The Satanic Verses. Rushdie also explains how "surrealism, fabulism and mythical storytelling” are such an influence on his work, with particular reference to his 1999 novel The Ground Beneath Her Feet which was inspired by the ancient Greek tale of Orpheus and Eurydice. As Rushdie says, "truth in art can be arrived at through many doors”.Producer: Edwina PitmanArchive used:BBC News, 12 Aug 2022 Newsnight, BBC2, 12 Aug 2022 BBC Sound archive, India: Transfer of Power, 15 August 1947 Nehru: Man of Two Worlds, BBC1, 27 Feb 1962 Midnight's Children, Book at Bedtime, BBC Radio 4, 27 August 1997 Advert, Fresh Cream Cakes, 1979 BBC News, 14 Feb 1989 The World At One, BBC Radio 4, 14 Feb 1989 BBC News, 28 May 1989 Today, BBC Radio 4, 27 April 1990 Clip from Curb Your Enthusiasm, Season 9, episode 3

15 Stiche in 27 Sekunden. Die Messerattacke auf Salman Rushdie im August 2022 war kurz und brutal. Der Autor der "Satanischen Verse", von "Mitternachtskinder" und "Victory City" verlor dabei ein Auge und musste sich zurück ins Leben und Schreiben kämpfen. Um den Angriff zu verarbeiten, schrieb er ihn sich von der Seele in: "Knife. Gedanken über einen Mordversuch". Nadine hatte die Gelegenheit den Star-Autor in einem Hotel in Hamburg zu treffen. Er erzählt, wie es ist einhändig zu tippen, warum er trotz allem ein optimistischer Mensch bleibt und wie er heute über seinen Attentäter denkt. Er empfiehlt außerdem seine aktuellen Lieblingsbücher und verrät seine liebste Kindheitslektüre. Salman Rushdie ist gerade auf Lesereise in Europa und hat nur einen einzigen Auftritt in Deutschland: Am 16. Mai im Deutschen Theater Berlin. Das Buch: "Knife. Gedanken nach einem Mordversuch".

Throughout the animal kingdom, from fruit flies to worms to primates, one of the critical keys to longevity, or lifespan, and even more important, health span, is caloric restriction. Ensuring that you obtain all the essential nutrients, yet eat less of them, is one of the ways to do that. Eating food within a narrow time window rather than continually throughout the day, also flips genetic switches that cleanse our cells and support a healthy metabolism. While many experts affirm the health value of fasting in different ways, the question of what is meant by healthy nutrition arouses much more controversy.Today I talk with Dr. Joseph Anton, CEO and board chairman of L-Nutra, a nutrition technology company. Dr. Anton has dedicated his extensive professional experience to reforming health systems towards preventative care, creating a market for healthy aging by launching the first healthy aging product, and emphasizing fasting as a longevity lifestyle.We discuss a different perspective on fasting for longevity, which led to the creating of a Fasting Mimicking Technology Platform. Our conversation ranges through intermittent fasting, eating within circadian rhythms, plant-based diets, ketogenic eating and whether one can achieves an effective state of autophagy after anything less than a 2 day fast.  Contact Dr. AntounWebsite: www.l-nutra.com https://mobile.twitter.com/drjosephantoun https://www.linkedin.com/in/drjosephantoun/ Contact Dr. Gillian Lockitch about Growing Older Living Younger:Schedule a free Discovery Call with Dr. Lockitch Order Growing Older Living Younger: The Science of Aging Gracefully and The Art of Retiring Comfortably at  gillianlockitch.com Join the Growing Older Living Younger Private Facebook Community, to meet people, who like you, are discovering and sharing ways to age in great health.

Mióta és miért írnak angolul Indiában? Mik a 20. század jellemző irodalmi témái? Hogy alakultak ki az indiai diaszpórák? Milyen jelentősége van a streaming platformoknak az indiai irodalom népszerűsítésében? Mai adásunkban az indiai posztkoloniális irodalomról beszélgetünk, vendégünk pedig Dr Földváry Kinga, a PPKE BTK Angol-Amerikai intézetében működő Angol Nyelvű Irodalmak és Kultúrák Tanszékének habilitált docense. A beszélgetés során szóba kerül a posztkoloniális irodalom értelmezésének elméleti háttere, fő szerzői és témái, valamint beszélgetünk az indiai diaszpórák kialakulásáról és irodalmi jelentőségéről is. A beszélgetés során az alábbi szerzőkről és művekről esett szó: E. M. Forster: Út Indiába, 1924/1967 Salman Rushdie: Az éjfél gyermekei, 1981/1987; A sátáni versek, 1988/2004; Joseph Anton, 2012- Rushdie-nak egyébként az esszéköteteken kívül minden művét lefordították magyarra V.

Dr. Joseph Anton had the best of intentions when he went to med school. He was excited to cure disease and eliminate pain. He worked hard and was at the top of his class, but when he started doing his rotations, he realized at the end of the day they were practicing sick care, not healthcare. People came to see doctors after they were already sick, and usually walked away with a lifetime of medications. Dr. Joseph wanted to learn how to reshape the healthcare industry into more of a preventative one.   One major roadblock he ran into was that prevention doesn't have a product to sell, it's more about lifestyle changes. People like something tangible that they can hold in their hands, so Dr. Joseph asked himself what products can help with prevention? He realized the answer lay in nutrition. He spent many years researching which foods can help to live a long, healthy life. Now, Dr. Joseph is the CEO of L-Nutra, a company that offers nutritional supplements as well as food subscription boxes. Their research is so impressive, they already have over 50 insurance companies on board to reimburse some patients for this food as medicine.    In addition to nutrition, Dr. Joseph also educates people on the benefits of fasting. He discusses the two types of fasting, intermittent and prolonged. Intermittent is anything under two days and is great for weight loss. Prolonged fasting, or anything over two days, actually leads to rejuvenation of cells. If fasting for longer than 2 days seems daunting, Dr. Joseph has the answer with the fasting mimicking diet.   What You'll Learn: What the two pillars of a long healthy life are. How the fasting mimicking diet works.  How meat intake should fluctuate over your life.  Why cancers have increased over the past 3 decades.    Favorite Quote: “We have to make the easy choice, the healthy one.” -Dr. Joseph Anton    How To Get Connected: L-Nutra Prolon Fast Nutrition For Longevity   __________________________________________________________________________ Find Nikki on her Website here, or Email her at nikki@prissynikki.com You can also find her on Facebook, Instagram, & LinkedIn.  The Life Amplified Podcast is not your rainbows and butterflies show.

Hadi Matar was charged with attacking and stabbing Salman Rushdie on a lecture stage in western New York on August 12, 2022.Salman has lived under the threat of death and attack ever since 1989 when the Iranian supreme leader, Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini issued a fatwah and a €3,000,000 bounty. The fatwah was issued because Salman wrote a novel called 'The Satanic Verses' which had a passage that satirised the Quran. All of this is because of that little offense, and offense that should have rolled of the backs of those offended.Salman writes in his memoirs of the fatwah, titled Joseph Anton, his life, his career, who he is, his controversies, and as well of course, what it is like to live in captivity. 

Salman Rushdie discussing his memoir of his years in hiding from the fatwa, “Joseph Anton” with host Richard Wolinsky, recorded September 25, 2012. The recent attack on the famed author brought back memories of the fatwa issued by the Ayatollah Khomeini regarding the publication of the novel “The Satanic Verses.” The death threat forced Salman Rushdie into hiding for a decade, out of which he emerged and eventually resumed a normal life. In this wide-ranging interview, he discusses how it affected his life, the life of those around him, and the nature of religious fanaticism.

In 2013, Meghna Chakrabarti spoke with Salman Rushdie, on the tail end of his book tour for Joseph Anton. Today, in this podcast special, we're resurfacing the 2013 Radio Boston interview with Rushdie.

On August 12, 2022 there was an attempted assassination of the world-class author Salman Rushdie.  Rushdie had twice won the Booker Prize for the best novel in the English language.  Then in 1978 he wrote a book entitled The Satanic Verses.  Part of the book focused upon a dream of a delusional man about a "city in the sand' where a group of false believers had embraced a false prophet. It is the kind of book that a world-class novelist would write.  At that point Iran had just ended its war against Iraq, and Ayatollah Khomeini was on his death bed.  His son came out of his room with a declaration that Rushdie was an apostate who had insulted the Prophet Mohammed and should be killed.  He called upon all faithful Muslims to undertake the task.  Quickly an organization in Iran offered a vast reward to anyone who was successful at this task.  (Today the amount is in excess of $3.0 million).   Rushdie went into hiding for nine years and later wrote a memoir entitled Joseph Anton, his code name during  that terrifying time.   It is very good.  A subsequent Iranian government declared that the issues were in the past and the declaration was no longer in effect.  But today, there is a new sheriff in town. I posted this classroom lecture a year ago (it has over 400 downloads)  but given what happened this week, it deserves another posting.

Satanic Verses by Salman RushdieSalman Rushdie is one of the great English language literary figures.  He has won the Brooker Prize for the best Novel in English and was a finalist twice. The focus of this talk is on the Rushdie novel, the Islamic traditions around the most controversial passages, comparisons with Christian traditions, and the reaction of Ayatollah Khomeini. But a core focus is upon how we interpret texts, especially religious texts.  Consider an incident in the gospels.  It is called The Woman at the Well.  Jesus is thirsty and asks a woman drawing water if he can have a drink.  She says yes and gives him a drink.  It turns out she is a “loose” woman, maybe even a prostitute.  But that aside there is a problem in translation.  In at least one African culture, when a woman gives a man food or drink from her hand, it is a prelude to sex.  In that particular translation of the Bible, there is a footnote explaining that Jesus is not hitting on this woman. Lesson 1:  Fidelity to the words as written can often be wrong rather than right.  Lesson 2: Our understanding can also be wrong, even if we have a clear understanding of the words. There is also a tension between the overarching goal of revelation (for those who are believers) and specific texts.  If the divine goal of revelation is to empower humans to achieve their full potential, then a focus upon a specific text intended to put a check on sin can be in contradiction with the higher goal if it is emphasized in a way that constrains human empowerment by overlooking  the higher divine purpose.   All believers want to know God's Will but God is often opaque in terms of our understanding.  (Go back to the podcast on Feuerbach is you missed that one).  I am reminded of what the great Catholic theologian Hans Kung said when he came to Dearborn in the 1980s and was challenged from the floor about how he had interpreted a specific passage. The person challenging him had absolute certainty about the meaning of a specific text regarding the future: Kung  said, “God does not act to satisfy human curiosity.”  Ouch!  Some of you will find this lecture provocative.  Good! I hope it is provocative in a way that makes you think.  This was a class lecture.  There is some interaction with students and some  references to readings.  Sorry about that.  I thought the lecture came out well and did not want to re-record it. Books by Salman Rushdie are Satanic Verses and  Joseph Anton.  Some terms and namesQureish, Hagar/Hajar, Ishmael, Abraham/Ibrahim,  Mecca, Medina, Gabriel/Jibril, circumambulate, Mahound, Salman the Scribe; Pantheon (a building in pre-Islamic Mecca where there were 360 gods); Taif; demiurge;  intersession; garaniq. Three female goddesses from Taif: Al-lat, al-Uzza, Manat.  Ayatollah Khomeini, fatwa.  Iran-Iraq War of 1980-1988.  Early biographers: Ibn Ishak, Tabari, Ibn Saad; Apostasy, blasphemy, heresy. One glitch:  A favorite translation of the Bible is The Jerusalem Bible, not The Jefferson Bible.  (There is a Jefferson Bible, consisting entirely of the words and teachings of Jesus, but it is not the one I mentioned). Thoughtful Comment:  Stocktonafterclass@gmail.com

Salman Rushdie, född 1947, är en brittisk-indisk romanförfattare. Han fick ett pyramidalt genombrott med Midnattsbarnen (1981) och slungades ut i storpolitiken med Satansverserna (1988). Till hans senare produktion hör Marken under hennes fötter (1999) och den självbiografiska Joseph Anton (2012). År 2007 blev Rushdie adlad av drottning Elizabeth II. Per Bauhn, professor i praktisk filosofi vid Linnéuniversitet, samtalar med Peter Luthersson.

Ian McMillan talks to Salman Rushdie about writing ‘cancel culture' into his latest novel ‘Quichotte', putting the realism into magic realism, the craft of an opening sentence, the appeal of Latin hymns, the genius of PG Wodehouse – and the resonance throughout his work of the classic film ‘The Wizard of Oz'. To close the Verb season, Dr Jason Allen- Paisant reads his poem 'A Sound From The Throat of God', written after the killing of George Floyd. Dr Jason Allen- Paisant is Lecturer in Caribbean Poetry and Decolonial Thought at the University of Leeds. Salman Rushdie Salman Rushdie's latest novel is ‘Quichotte' – a story with echoes and plot rhymes, where the main protagonist is in love with a celebrity called Salma R, and goes on a road trip with an imaginary son. It's a story where people are capable of turning into rhinoceroses, communicate in chess moves, and which also interrogates ‘cancel culture'. Salman Rushdie is the author of thirteen novels including 'Midnight's Children', for which he won the Man Booker Prize and Booker of Bookers Prize, and one collection of short stories. He has also published four works of non-fiction, including the internationally acclaimed bestseller, Joseph Anton, and co-edited two anthologies. His children's fiction has also been much praised. Rushdie was knighted in 2007 for services to literature. His books have been translated into over forty languages.

Salman Rushdie de Joseph Anton

In conversation with novelist and musician Wesley Stace ''One of the major literary voices of our time'' (San Francisco Chronicle), Salman Rushdie is the author of more than a dozen novels, including The Satanic Verses, The Golden House, and Midnight's Children, winner of the ''Booker of Bookers'' Prize in 1993. His other works include a short story collection, East, West, and four works of nonfiction, including the memoir Joseph Anton, which chronicles his time in hiding during the fatwa against him. In his latest novel, Rushdie spins the humorous tale of a modern-day Don Quixote in midlife crisis tilting at the windmills of America's moral and spiritual turpitude. (recorded 12/10/2019)

Eine eigene Bank, ein Palais und 2,7 Millionen Gulden in bar: Die Erbschaft war stattlich, die Josef Anton von Maffei nach dem Tod des Vaters im Jahr 1836 erhielt. Er investierte das Geld in den Industriezweig, dem seiner Meinung nach die Zukunft gehörte: in den Eisenbahnbau. Autorin: Carola Zinner

Two Years Eight Months and Twenty-Eight NightsA Novel by Salman RushdieOn Sale September 8 After writing his memoir and a children's novel, TWO YEARS EIGHT MONTHS AND TWENTY-EIGHT NIGHTS (less precisely 1001 nights!) is Rushdie's first adult novel in 7 years.Rushdie's new novel is a wonder tale about the way we live now, a rich and multifaceted work that blends history, mythology, and a timeless love story to bring alive a world – our world – that has been plunged into an age of unreason. Inspired by 2,000 years of storytelling tradition yet rooted in the concerns of our present moment, it is an enduring testament to the power of the imagination.  In the near future, after a storm strikes New York City, the strangenesses begin. A down-to-earth gardener finds that his feet no longer touch the ground. A graphic novelist awakens in his bedroom to a mysterious entity that resembles his own sub–Stan Lee creation. Abandoned at the mayor's office, a baby identifies corruption with her mere presence, marking the guilty with blemishes and boils. A seductive gold digger is soon tapped to combat forces beyond imagining.         Unbeknownst to them, they are all descended from the whimsical, capricious, wanton creatures known as the jinn, who live in a world separated from ours by a veil. Centuries ago, Dunia, a princess of the jinn, fell in love with a mortal man of reason. Together they produced an astonishing number of children, unaware of their fantastical powers, who spread across generations in the human world.         Once the line between worlds is breached on a grand scale, Dunia's children and others will play a role in an epic war between light and dark spanning a thousand and one nights—or two years, eight months, and twenty-eight nights. It is a time of enormous upheaval, where beliefs are challenged, words act like poison, silence is a disease, and a noise may contain a hidden curse.         Inspired by the traditional “wonder tales” of the East, Salman Rushdie's new novel is satirical and bawdy, full of cunning and folly, rivalries and betrayals, kismet and karma, rapture and redemption. Salman Rushdie is the author of twelve novels—Grimus, Midnight's Children (for which he won the Booker Prize and the Best of the Booker), Shame, The Satanic Verses, Haroun and the Sea of Stories, The Moor's Last Sigh, The Ground Beneath Her Feet, Fury, Shalimar the Clown,The Enchantress of Florence, Luka and the Fire of Life, and Two Years Eight Months and Twenty-Eight Nights—and one collection of short stories: East, West. He has also published four works of nonfiction: Joseph Anton,The Jaguar Smile, Imaginary Homelands, and Step Across This Line, and co-edited two anthologies, Mirrorwork and Best American Short Stories 2008. He is a member of the American Academy of Arts and Letters and a Distinguished Writer in Residence at New York University. A former president of American PEN, Rushdie was knighted in 2007 for services to literature.   -Press Release

Since it emerged from its disreputable romantic beginnings, the novel replaced history and poetry to become the most significant vehicle for storytelling and the transmission of cultural values. Readers were sent to the novel to cultivate their empathy, develop moral principles and explore ideas, and it survived the rise of film with its influence intact. But a new generation of television creators have taken our most popular medium and broken the shackles of format to create huge, rambling narratives that, by reaching millions of viewers, have become new cultural icons. Will this make novels a pastime for the intellectual one percent, or will it liberate their writers to find a new audience?Emily Nussbaum is the New Yorker's television critic.

Man Booker winning novelist Salman Rushdie discusses his memoir Joseph Anton with journalist David Aaronovitch at The Bloomsbury Theatre in London. This was a Time Out Live / Foyles event.

You are an author, minding your own business. One fine day you decide to write a book about the birth of a religion and you pick the one you know the most: Islam. From one day to the next the whole Muslim world is after you, willing and ready to kill you. This is what happened to Salman Rushdie after the publication of his famous Satanic Verses in 1989. Joseph Anton, a memoir is his recollection, under the pseudonym Joseph Anton, of nine years of nightmare, nine years of fear, nine years of wondering when this will all end. It's the story of a man dealing with forces much bigger than him. It's the story of a man dealing with every day life knowing a death threat is on him. It's the story of a man dealing with other people, trying to live life as a normal human being. Most importantly, it's a tale about freedom of speech. It does help to have read The Satanic Verses beforehand but even without, Joseph Anton, a memoir is an amazing recollection of an important piece of history from the point of view of the main protagonist. And it's written with the extraordinarily elegant prose of Salman Rushdie, a very big plus Visit the show website!
