Description
  • Salman Rushdie's novels mostly deal with the history of the Indian subcontinent or with Indians migrating to England. Fury (2001), however, focuses on a British Indian professor's effort to start over in New York, where the author himself moved a year before. While Rushdie's earlier novels were praised by the critics, Fury received mixed reviews. In this article, I argue that most critics failed to recognize the complexity of an outsider's perception of contemporary America. I suggest that while Solanka, the main character of the novel, did not succeed in becoming an American, it was his position as an outsider that enabled him to view American culture with the mixture of admiration and irony presented by Rushdie in this satirical novel.
