Salman Rushdie, the prolific author of The Satanic Verses, Booker Prize-winning Midnight’s Children and many other books and writings, will be visiting Wellesley College’s Alumnae Hall on Thursday, Nov. 12, 6:30pm, at an event that’s free and open to the public.
Rushdie will be on a speaking tour that promotes his new novel, titled Two Years Eight Months Twenty-Eight Nights, which debuted in September.
Rushdie’s visit is part of Wellesley College’s Susan and Donald Newhouse Center for the Humanities Distinguished Thinkers Series, which has brought dozens of influential writers and thinkers to the school over the years for readings and discussions.
