Abstract
Rushdie’s writings take English literature to a new height. He is the master to influence the writers of his generation to follow him how to craft fiction fictionalizing history and vice versa. He is the first writer to combine the narrative techniques of the East and West expanding a vast canvas from the small point of an event. How a novel is composed combining all sorts of materials like history, magic, realism, fantasy, biography, autobiography and many other forms of literature is to learn from his fiction. He slips from center to periphery encircling and expanding his ideas to a greater extent which is very unique and uncommon. Midnight Children is a simple plot combing galaxy of literary genres getting garlanded in a single thread of theme.
