„Satanski stihovi“ je četvrti roman Salmana Rušdija, prvi put objavljen 1988. godine. Roman je delimično inspirisan životom proroka Muhameda. Naišao je na podeljena mišljenja kritičara i čitalačke publike, naročito u Velikoj Britaniji, kao i na velike kontroverze u muslimanskim zajednicama širom sveta, zbog navodnog vređanja Islama.

It is very hard to follow if you are not familiar with Hindu culture and if the translator was to lazy to look stuff up (like in Serbian) it is even worse. e.g. The translator would need to know who a gopi was in order to know that gopis was plural; if you were was to understand the character who "hung her hat shameless on a Chola Natraj", and other characters' perception of her, you would need to know Chola Natraj was a depiction of Vishnu made during Chola dynasty... I had to stop reading every time and look these things up (and I have nonstop internet, in 1988 people did not) - it feels like research for a college paper. There would be 5 references, one after another, in as many sentences.
