Salman Rushdie's new Novel Victory City was released in India on February 9. The novel that narrates the story of VijayaNagara Empire through the inimitable Rushdie style once again underlines the belief that the word is the ultimate victor. Suneetha Balakrishnan, in the latest episode of Book Stop, presents a quick review of Victory City, the manuscript of which was handed over to publishers before Rushdie faced an attack from a religious fanatic in August, 2022.
