DEAR FRIENDS
Salman Rushdi no doubt enjoys a very high position amony literary figurs
I would make the above a sentence by itself.
and he is a calibre writer famous for his novels in which he tries to
depict the human society fighting for faith and religions.

He beautifully colored
his language by using colored statements and colored language about
his characters.
but question arises in the mind ofsimple and lay man why he is not enjoying
that position in asia, and particularely in the south asia and muslim world.
Make colored into present tense, not past tense. Do not use the word colored twice in the same paragraph. Always try to keep your vocabulary varied and interesting, rather than boring and repetitive. Capitalize 'muslim'.

There may be many reasons for his obscure position in this part of world.
Although he got fame and popularity in europe because his ideas and thoughts
are new for european and americans and secondly he did not attack thier religions
even. But he severely attacked his own religion with writing "Satanic Verses"
But strongly believe in humanitic but his approach toward humanity is not favoured
in east.

Let us examine various reasons why Rushdie might be unpopular in certain parts of the world. His fame and popularity in Europe stem from the novelty of his ideas, which are unfamiliar to Europeans. Remember, Rushdie did not attack the dominant religion of the Europeans. Rushdie's novel, "The Satanic Verses", is viewed by Muslims as an attack upon Islam. Rushdie's appeal to humanism does not find favor among Islamic peoples.

Because his rivals do believe that all religions teach good things and that is why
he has no right to attack any religion as all religions are the offshoots of same three.
But here keeping aside the religion discussion ,we must diagnose the reason why Salman is not
favoured in Asia and why he not succeed in making ways in asian writer like tolstoy, wordsworth
hemminway.
the truth is that his ideas are othordox for asain reader, there is too much repeatation in his works.
and almost all asian are familiar with such stories which he wrote.
for instance his recent novel "Fear" is about indian Kashmir muslim girl and hindu girl who marry wiith out
caring for religion. This is very common in this part of world specailly South Asia.so
there is novelty for us .
He simple to make an utopian world which in not possible in this realitic world.
Secondly is the reason unpopularity among muslims and they are not ready to read him.
So he lost 1000 million readers. SO it is time to include such alarge population in reading his book
that is why he should read a book about how to bring harmony among nations through religion.
thanks
