Summary
Salman Rushdie: City of Victory
Hidden in a clay pot. Sealed with wax. Buried in the heart of a ruined palace in the ashes of one of India's greatest, almost forgotten empires. A story waiting to be told.
In the fourteenth century AD, in the south of the country we now call India, nine-year-old Pampa Campana, who was left an orphan after a war between two forgotten kingdoms, begins to hear the voice of an ancient goddess and changes the course of history. Inspired and imbued with powerful magic, she vows that no other woman will suffer the tragic fate of her beloved mother.
Using miracles, she creates a fairytale city with her breath: the words she whispers encourage her people to grow and change, and her poetry depicts the rise and fall of her empire. The prophetess herself - beloved, terrifying, timeless - watches as the world changes over the centuries and her beauty, frozen in youth from decade to decade, fades along with the glory of her city.
City of Victory is a poetic saga of love, adventure and legend, but also a powerful testimony to the power of storytelling.
