East, West
by Salman Rushdie
In these stories Salman Rushdie examines the consequences when external forces pull his characters first in one direction, then the other: a rickshaw driver writes letters describing his film star career in Bombay; a mispronunciation leads to romance and an unusual courtship in 1960s London; and Christopher Columbus dreams of consummating his relationship with Queen Isabella.
