Sir Salman Rushdie has described the moment he saw his would-be-killer rushing towards him on stage in New York in 2022, before he was stabbed more than a dozen times.
The acclaimed author, 76, described the attack as he read an excerpt from his upcoming memoir during an interview with American journalist Anderson Cooper for USA show 60 Minutes on CBS.Sir Salman said he had expected an attack in a public place, revealing that his immediate thought was: “So, it’s you. Here you are.”The author was told by doctors he was lucky to survive the stabbing, which came 33 years after a $3 million bounty was placed on his head by Iran's Ayatollah.
"In a separate clip from 60 Minutes on social media, teasing the interview, Sir Salman talked about his survival feeling "like a miracle"."And I certainly don't feel that some hand reached down from the skies and guarded me."But I do think something happened which wasn't supposed to happen.
