Jenni Ramone's Salman Rushdie and Translation brings together a detailed literary analysis of Rushdie's major works and a wide range of contemporary translation theories. Using Rushdie's texts as starting points, Ramone is able to illustrate how Rushdie constantly uses and develops ideas of translation in his narrration. Similarly, she evokes the applicability of the theories from the textual sources. This is a remarkable work deeply engaged with studies of Rushdie as well as translation theory. Undoubtedly this will become one of the more useful resources for scholars interested in Rushdie and translation alike.
