    I always mix up Ian McKewan with Ian Rankin, so when I hear people say "greatest living writer" I always think "really? Detective Rebus is great, but...."

    I don't know about you, but a wussy writer wouldn't be my first choice of people to protect me if there was a fatwa on my ass.

    @Lizawithazee: However, McEwan's exhaustive supply of kaftans and beads would make the hours before fatwa-ed death a RIOT. Also, possible disguising opportunities.

    Who was recently spotted in South Beach sporting a French bikini, spiked heels, high hair and enormous breasts? Salman Rushdie.

    The story of having to hide a fellow author because of censorship by murder is more compelling and surreal than any work of fiction.

    This is super-cute! Lovely to know that, in between issuing forth short stories stretched thinly into one-note novels, McEwan is a saviour for authors threatened by / threatening Islam. I've got his back if old women named Briony ever get wind of what he's done...

    @cassiemajestic: I have to admit, I loved Atonement (though it only works as a book, not as a film), and I like some of his short stories. The rest of his stuff, zzzzz. Especially Amsterdam, gah!

    That dreadful night in the cottage together was surely nothing compared to that of the Chesil Beach couple.
