Knife

On August 12, 2022, Salman Rushdie was scheduled to speak in Chautauqua, New York, giving a lecture on how dangerous a writer's life can be. Rushdie was attacked by a man who jumped on stage and stabbed him several times.... The assailant was arrested, and Rushdie was rushed to the hospital. There followed long months of treatment, and then further recovery from psychological trauma. But Rushdie found the strength not only to endure all the trials but also to write an honest and brave book about it. Yes, the support of relatives and fellow writers was very important to him, but the main thing is that he once again defended his right to write and speak about what is important to him.
