It's a magical-realism jumble about the immigrant experience in Britain, with some analogies to the life of Muhammad. Among others, like the parting of the Red Sea (Indian Ocean, in the book).
I read it when I was a teenager. I thought it was okay. Some excellent vignettes. Mostly a slog.

Same. I was 17 and it was over my reading level at the time. I don't remember much of it.

More likely because the real reason for the fatwa wasn't blasphemy but portraying Khomeini as a pathetic old man. Rushdie's book was bound to be controversial, but there would have been nothing more than a few protests if Khomeini hadn't felt personally humiliated.

The character based on Mohamed was the middleman between an angelic messenger and the scribe and put his own spin in the translation. The suggestion of this threatens the power of ayatollah who declared open season on the author to cement fear in his own people.
