The future, even when it was only a question-shrouded glimmer, would not be eclipsed by the past; even when death moved towards the centre of the stage, life went on fighting for equal rights.
In "The Satanic Verses," Salman Rushdie reflects on the enduring struggle for a brighter future amidst the shadows of the past. He emphasizes that, despite the weight of history and the inevitability of death, the promise of a better tomorrow remains compelling. Life continues to assert itself, pushing against the confines of what has already transpired.
This juxtaposition highlights the relentless human spirit, which seeks equality and justice even in the face of adversity. The struggle for rights and recognition persists, serving as a testament to resilience and hope that life will prevail over the burdens of history.
