I agree. I am half-way through the book and The Enchantress of Florence is proving to be a very enjoyable read. Rushdie has returned to well-written, *readable* prose (like in the days of Midnight's Children and Haroun and Verses). The prose in his previous 3 books (Fury, Ground Beneath her Feet and Shalimar) gave me indigestion from being too heavy. Shiv, what did you find boring about Verses?
