Saleem Sinai was born at midnight, the midnight of India's independence, and found himself mysteriously 'handcuffed to history' by the coincidence. He is one of the 1,001 children born at that midnight hour, each of them endowed with an extraordinary talent - and whose privilege and curse it is to be both masters and victims of their time.
