British-American author Salman Rushdie releases his memoir "Knife: Meditations After an Attempted Murder". The book is his first since the 2022 stabbing that hospitalized Rushdie and left him blind in eye. In the opening lines of "Knife," Rushdie vividly recounts the August 12, 2022 attack in upstate New York, where he was assaulted with a knife shortly after beginning a discussion on writer safety at the Chautauqua Amphitheatre. The memoir was published by Penguin Random House.
