I don't care about you, or the ideology that you claim to represent, and which you represent so poorly. I have my life, and my work, and there are people who love me. I care about those things.

BLAKE MORRISON, THE GUARDIAN (UK)

"Rushdie's triumph is not to be other: despite his terrible injuries and the threat he still lives under, he remains incorrigibly himself, as passionate as ever about art and free speech as 'the essence of our humanity.' At one point he quotes Martin Amis: 'When you publish a book, you either get away with it, or you don't.' He has more than got away with this one. It's scary but heartwarming, a story of hatred defeated by love. There's even room for a few jokes."

So now the question was: When you are fiven a second opportunity, what do you do with it? How do you use it? What should you do the same way, what might you do differently?
