Salman Rushdie reflects on surviving, storytelling and life's eleventh hour
In summer of 2022, Salman Rushdie came face to face with death. The Booker Prize-winning author was stabbed multiple times, while on stage, about to give a lecture. He survived, but suffered life-altering injuries. Rushdie has since returned to writing, including his new story collection The Eleventh Hour, which reflects on mortality. He joins Piya Chattopadhyay to talk about confronting his own fragility, finding humour in survival, and why ideas often outlive the people who imagine them.
