The Moor's Last Sigh

‘I turned seventy on New Year’s Day 1992, at the age of thirty-five.�
Moraes ‘Moor� Zogoiby has a condition that accelerates his growth. If that is not enough he also has a large club like deformed hand. The story is based on his narration of his life story and that of his family generations.
My first Rushdie. My wife said start with this one. Brilliant, powerful, sprawling. Incredible language and characters. Reminded me of Dickens in some of the grotesque character descriptions.
Left with a feeling of having read something really special. And of course the image of a stuffed dog being wheeled around.
