Summary
Just before dawn one winter's morning, a
hijacked jetliner explodes above the English Channel. Through
the falling debris, two figures, Gibreel Farishta, the biggest
star in India, and Saladin Chamcha, an expatriate returning
from his first visit to Bombay in fifteen years, plummet from
the sky, washing up on the snow-covered sands of an English
beach, and proceed through a series of metamorphoses, dreams,
and revelations.
