This is a hybrid course. One section meets on site at the location listed; and one section meets online only.
We examine the creative genius of a writer in three different novels that span Rushdie’s life. He relies upon satire and magical realism to tell his story, often using modern social problems within the storyline. These novels also take us into the world of India, Spain, the United States and other Middle Eastern countries and religious traditions.
Check to see if this course has posted a class outline or syllabus.
