In  this interview, conducted during Rushdie's tour for his novel "The Moor's Last Sigh," the author discusses how the fatwa had effected him and what has inspired him through the years to write. In describing the story of his life, he sighs: "it's a very dreadful thing to be stuck in a bad novel." The interview touches on how the threat of death and fear of the Iranian government has influenced his work, and the answers are frank and depressing. While lacking depth, the interview is important for those who would like to understand the man behind the language in his personal nature.
