Salman Rushdie new novel \u2018Victory City\u2019 released:<\/strong> Victory City, a “epic tale” of a 14th-century woman who defies a patriarchal world to rule a city, was published by Salman Rushdie. The much-anticipated work tells the tale of young orphan girl Pampa Kampana who is endowed by a goddess with magical powers and founds the city, in modern-day India, of Bisnaga, which translates as Victory City. Brilliantly narrated in the style of an ancient epic, Victory City is a saga of love, adventure, and myth that is in itself a testament to the power of storytelling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
