An intertextuall reading of Rushdie's "Haroun and the Sea of Stories"
Zdravka Matišić
Abstract
Intercultural reading of Rushdie's novel written for children, but not only for them, shows that Rushdie simply lives and creates in the milieu of his time, equally rooted in the Indian heritage and in his modern Western upbringing. Salman Rushdie is deeply involved in everything around him and as a true magician of the written word he amalgamates the culture of his adopted homeland producing a blend of exquisite flavour. One might say that Haroun and the Sea of Stories is a dizzy juggling with intercultural, interliterary, intermedial, interlingual and intertemporal intertexts.
