Salman Rushdie's forthcoming memoir 'Knife: Meditations After An Attempted Murder' delves into his recovery and reflections following a 2022 knife attack.

Rushdie suffered severe injuries from the attack, including the loss of sight in one eye, but has since regained control of his life.

He harbors no desire for revenge, yet anticipates the assailant's trial, hoping for a lengthy prison sentence for the perpetrator.

Rushdie encountered an additional health scare with the discovery of a prostate 'small bump', subsequent to the attack.

The trial of the accused, Hadi Matar, faces delays with the defense granted access to Rushdie's memoir drafts.

Set for release on April 16, the memoir explores themes of love, hatred, and the personal aftermath of the violent incident.

Rushdie is eager to confront his attacker in court, viewing the trial as a pivotal moment in his life.
